Hi so i unboxed my new dji mavic pro today and put the battery and controller on charge,
To my dismay the controller has charged but the battery doesnt,
It is stuck with one light flashing (the one furthest away from the power button)
It flashes about 15 times then stops for 7 seconds then repeats,
Is this battery broken?
I have left it for 3 hours and it srill does the same
Thanks in advance

Are you charging using the intelligent hub or is the cable connected directly to the battery? What happens if you remove the battery from the charger and click the power button once? Do any of the lights blink indicating some level of charge? Will the battery turn on if you double click and hold the power button?

The micro USB cable only charges the RC, not the battery attached to the Mavic Pro itself. You can only charge the battery using the power plug that comes with the drone. If you can not charge the battery then try resetting the battery (read the intelligent flight battery manual).

Hi , no where in the manual I can see how to reset the battery on the mavic ? Be assured I'm using the dji charger that came with the mavic, it is brand new

Hi, I'm sorry to hear about the issue that you are experiencing. Please press the power button once, then press again and hold for two seconds to check if you can turn on the battery or not? Thanks.

Was going to say send it back but you beat me to it! Fingers crossed on the new one as that was broke!

Having the same issue as you with brand new battery. First charge not charging. Same exact results. Is the battery defective?

Hello, just trying to activate my Mavic Pro, but it seems like I'm having the exact same issue as described here.

When I connect the battery to the charger, the bottom light lights up, blinks, but then it doesn't appear to be charging.

Curious if this issue was ever resolved?
