Well I did update my phantom 3 pro remote today since the go app told me to do so, after that the battery will drain out any second it wants to, did charge it fully twice and goes out from full to zero in a second.
Nice update and well done, any plans to fix this or should I trash this thing?

Here is some details about how it went, I was about to go fly and loaded my controller full before I turned it on, after it seemed to be fully charged turned it on and go app tells me to update the FW and I did, then I  went  to adjust my p3p cam settings the battery dies after 2-3min, put in on charger again and after few minutes it seem to be full, went flying for ~8minutes and rc battery shows fully charged, then left it in and it goes to zero charge again, back to cherger and few minutes and it shows full again...?
Do I dare go flying again

That sounds like a failed battery board ...

Do you have any other P3 battery to try ? Does that do same ?
