NEW battery problem ?( P3A)

[Steve Mc Queen]

Hi,
I have two batteries for p3a.I do not know which one came with the drone.Problem is this.
When i plug in No2 battery i have to press "power" button once, to start charging.No1 starts by itself.Any one else notice that?

Make sure the firmware is upto date on the batteries.

If the has more than 80% charge it will not auto charge unless the battery is on.

It should start automatically .

It should start automatically .

yes just noticed that it does start automatically but...nearly 70" after pluged in.Is this right?

One of my batteries did the same. I now plug in before turning on the socket. Fault cleared and starts charging in auto. Not really an answer as to why, more of a solution.
