Litchi error 1098, cannot takeoff???

[Chrislaf]

Today I got a Litchi “error 1098, cannot take off” when using auto-takeoff. A few moments later I could take off. This was on my second flight and second battery. It was cold (3C). The battery was warmed up in a battery warmer before flight. This is the second time I have got this error - both times it was cold. Everything else about the flight was normal. All telemetry and battery voltage were normal. Any ideas what this error is?

Thanks,
Chris

Try contacting Litchi, they have been quite responsive with me.

Ok, will do that. I’ll report back if they get back to me.

Litchi support said it was likely due to the fact that the AC needs to warm up before take off.
On the first flight/first battery I got a message on the Litchi screen saying the AC was warming up but not on the second flight/second battery.

So am I correct in assuming that the battery warms up the AC when it is cold before it will allow take-off?

What I find with Litchi, is that sometimes auto take-off will not respond and there is no on screen message, whereas in GO there is on on screen message. Example: Yesterday evening Litchi would not let me auto take-off. When I switched into GO it said there was lots of interference and to not fly far. I moved a few metres to the right and was ok to do a Litchi auto take-off.
