Hi to all of you.
I have one phantom 2 (buy before 4 days) and i make the update from 3.06 to 3.08 new firmware with 3.4 assist.I see that he dont have batt update and i read here in forum that he need to run the old asist 3.2 to make the bat update first....so i run the 3.2 asist and he said no battery update (he can not find any update for battery).The battery is 2.0.0 vers in the update asist screen.Any help please?

DJI-Blair or anyone at DJI,

I've looked on the site and can find very little information to clarify the confusion. Can we please get some straight answers in terms of the changes for the batteries? Everyone is completely confused. Does the firmware update apply to current batteries or not? What is the auto-discharging feature? How does it work? What batteries does it apply to?

Thank you.

Well....everything its ok with new 3.6 asist.And the batt also.Thanks dji.
About auto discharge.....the notes said that if you have a batt full charge and dont use...after 10 days make auto storage.After 15 years into rc and 10 years into rc heli i thing its a lot the 10 days.My opinion is 2 days without run the batt.

Glad to hear it works.
The new battery firmware v2.6.0.0 can be used on the previous batteries except  the battery with loader of v1.3.0.0 or firmware of v1.6.0.0
As we know,for long term storage, it's recomended to place the battery with only a 40%-50% charge in a storage box.
When a battery is full charged but does not operate in 10 days, it will auto-discharge.

Blair,  does this new auto-discharge after 10 days apply to all batteries that could be updated to firmware V2.6.0.0?

Thanks Blair,  does the autodischarge timer get reset every time the battery is powered on, or otherwise (please specify)?
Also what is the internal discharge current and to what level/voltage  does it discharge to before it stops?

Thanks in advance
