So, my batteries are set to discharge after 10 days. Its been around two weeks now and they have not discharged. Is this unusual?
F.Y.I. my p4p is away from the batteries.

Have you been pressing the button on the battery during that time to check the charge level? If so, that'll will make the battery wait another 10 days (assuming that's your setting) before it starts auto discharging again.

Set it to auto discharge, and then forget it.

Over and over and over. Haha

It will only discharge if left without disturbance of the cycle.

IMHO

1. Set auto discharge to 1 or 2 days ...... 10 days is too long.
2, Don't fall for the trap of checking the battery as that resets the timer.

Before flying and reasonable time before ........... Switch on battery THEN connect to charger to make sure you have 100% charge.

I just top mine up, before an excursion or any planned top priortity mission.


Why is it such an ordeal to maintain your intelligent flight packs, folks?
Like pulling teeth, for some.

Hi Wanda, everything is fine. My P4P has returned to its Batteries. So everything is cool.

Mate my bird was separated from its Batteries for an extended amount of time. No need for your childish sarcasm.

Just top them up, and fly free...

No need to gross yourself out, bro. Haha

My sarcasm, is strictly adult orientated, with an R18 rating.
