Phantom 2 - with two dji batteries. Each battery has probably 20-22 full charges and flights on them. Usually flown to around 20% then recharged, but a few times batteries left to full discharge.
Took the phantom to the beach but noticed a few things.
First, the flight time of my phantom 2 is no more than 14 minutes each. I turned the gopro on, took off, landed when the phantom was landing itself, changed the battery, took off and landed when the phantom was landing itself again, and the gopro was at under 30 minutes...
I noticed the Phantom would start flashing red lights and wouldn't increase in altitude when the battery was at 30%. I haven't flown in a while but I was pretty sure it was closer to 20% before that was supposed to happen.
Also noticed the gimbal seems to be holding the camera at a slight angle. I'm sure it's unrelated but still something I'm curious about.
Open to any suggestions. I last updated the firmware (and immediately regretted it) right when they came out with the firmware that would auto land when it went within X number of miles of an airport. Not sure that helps diagnose the issue, but thought it wouldn't hurt.
Appreciate the help in advance
