To be clear, are DJI saying that the problem only manifests itself at battery cell voltages <3.7V, or that it is less likely to happen at voltages <3.7V ? Because there is a very significant difference.
If it's the former, I'd be happy to fly whlst monitoring cell voltages, and take the extra precautions suggested, if the latter, I'm not so sure.
The suggestion not to fly over people (or damagable objects!) in case the power fails is an oversimplification of the risk involved in the real world. It has kinetic energy as well.
I can just see the accident report: I was flying, with suspect batteries, at 40mph when the power failed............
It may be better to advise operators not to fly close enough to sensitve objects such that a sudden power loss could put them within collision range.
Coupled with the firmware issues, it makes the I2 a complete mess at the moment. |
