My two month old Mavic Air fly more combo already have two batteries with Cell Deviation warnings in the log viewer and yesterday one of the batteries fell from 30%  to 0% and made a emergency landing in high grass on a test flight with a cell deviation of 1,9 volt the end. The battery has only been charged ten times. Lucky me that it didn’t happened earlier the same day I had flown over a small pond taking pictures.

So I checked out my other flights in the log viewer and found that a second battery have cell deviation to.


Maybe this is the explanation that the many Mavic Air crashes or am I just unlucky.

I have 4 MA batteries flying close to 100 times in total. Each battery charged over 20 times and not seeing any problem.

Did you fly too hard till the battery empty or temperature too high?

Hello GDL
Thanks for your reply. Not sure what you mean by flying to hard, I havent used Sportmode if that whats flying to hard is, and most of the time i  land with more than 30% power left.

I got got some great tips in another forum. And I got a new battery from DJI, the second batteri I discharged to 7% and then charged it full again, seems to work now.

Now I always check every flightlog on Airdata to discover eventual cell deviation in a early stage.

Update: I have now got all three batteries replaced by DJI and the new ones including the two batteries I purchased new show only normal cell deviation.
