I searched up google and found some bits and pieces on this subject, mostly more dated and it didn't appear anyone is currently devising or creating a cure for the battery drop-out blues.
My main considerations are: Weight & Bulkiness of the device, so I want the lightest (but strong enough to do the job), most aerodynamic and best looking hodge-podge fix I can come up with. lol.
Here's my nickle tour and thoughts at this moment;
I'm thinking about a velcro strap (or two) that would extend around the out side of the battery bay. You could have the bottom already attached and then pull tightly upwards and attach on the top side of the drone, just above the battery tray opening. Of course the strap(s) would have to be quite tight, keeping not only the battery in but also the battery interface locked-in/connected. Downside is these straps will block some of the batteries step lighting. I'm thinking better this than having a possible drop-age issue... which more often than not, it's just a connection loss from the Interface and the battery still (mostly) stays in the cradle.
So since our OEM battery latching system isn't as good as the prior model, what do you guys think? What have you guys done (if anything)?.
