Battery Rapidly discharging

[tramsay]

I just bought a solo. First flight the battery drained from 99 to 7% in about 25 seconds, drone crash landed in a tree. I thought maybe bad battery so I tried a different one which was fine.

RTH drained that battery from 25 to 3% , and I charged both overnight. Today the crap battery lasted for about 25 seconds again, but now the second one is doing it too!!!

What the heck! What do I do!

I had one go bad on me like that. Multiple attempts to charge it and use it, calibrate did not help. Contacted 3dr and after some dialog they placed it for free. Didn't even want the old one back. It was still under warranty.

If you purchased it from B&H- you call them and let them know and they’ll replace the batteries. But don’t wait too long or you will end up with two pretty paper weights.

2 out of my 4 batteries are doing that for me also.
