Dear Dji,
I am on holiday right now Flying my drone arround in the forest everything was Working fine but then it randomly started returning to home point and flew right into a tree. Then it fell down my dad tryd to catch it and broke the fall by a bit then it landed in the bushes. The Battery popped out and everything Seems fine for now only 1 propeller broke but that issn't a big deal. The main body came lose from the lower body but that snapped into place pretty easyly. Now when I try to push me battery in it pops in and snaps into place. But here is the majour issue... the battery won't power on and the drone does Nothing now, when I power it on it gives me the power on lights and then when Al the lights are on like normal it just Goes off out of nowhere... charging won't really work it charges for like 3 secconds and then stops and waits for 3 secconds and starts charging for 3 secconds. I don't Know what it going on here but I would like to Know what I can do to fix this problem
Kind regards,
Noah Ritter

It sounds like the internal wiring inside the LiPo is damaged, if there isn't any swelling in the battery to begin with. Do you happen to have another battery just to make sure that it's only the battery that's causing the power issue?

When you're trying to charge it, have you tried turning it on to see if it registers?

If that's the case, then unfotunately there's some internal damage to the battery that would require for you to replace it. If you can get a hold of another battery from a friend or a local dealer, you can use that to check to see if there are any further issues with the unit itself.

Okay Thanks for your support, I find the forums way beter and way more suportive then the email support Thanks +1 for you and the forums and sadly -1 for the email support of Dji. Since now I have a bad experiance with the email support and I wil from now on only use the forums support
