Just wondering on this as here in the Australian desert you get used to  losing at least a couple of batteries on the M2P over a summer (and on the original Mavic), not  ideal but it happens. If the internally-mounted M3 batteries do the same  does that mean they will get seriously stuck inside the aircraft? Of  course when the battery got swollen on the M2P it sometimes caused it to  pop off in mid-air and crash the aircraft. By solving that problem by  putting the battery inside the M3 are they potentially causing another  problem? Asking for a friend.

  

Hahahahahaha.

I love that meme.
But seriously, I have not seen swollen batteries so far.

The shell arounds the battery appears to be designed to allow the swelling to go somewhere rather than the solid sides of the Mavic 2 batteries.

I am very pleased they moved to fitting the battery this way,  Im always concerned of the battery popping out the top on my M2P.

You don’t say. That was a huge concern, glad they have changed the design.

It also looks like the batteries have room to expand now without affecting the overall size.

Yes , we all hope so

FWIW, my original M2P batteries only started swelling after more than a year of regular (and way too frequent) recharges.
I say, give it a few months at least, way too early to have it now...

Jeez, the M3 has only been out 5 minutes!!! Batteries probably not warmed up yet. Come back and ask next July.
