I NEED MORE BATTERY!
I've done (2) 55,000+ runs in two days, writing the last couple thousand on 0% and making it just short of home point on both runs.

when you met critical battery staus ?

when you met critical battery staus ?

What's the question Lee? Critical battery autoland started at about 11,000 feet away from home point at 11% battery. When I go and retrieve my bird out of the dirt these days I can swear it's giving me dirty looks!

He was from abt. 13,684ft !!! it's amazing. can you accepted this status?

What's your point Lee? I'm sorry but I don't understand the question. Unknown is an amazing pilot and he gets great battery life in the area he's in! It only makes sense that he's able to travel further on a hard 0% than some of us in other areas! He gets about five minutes more of the same batteries that I use in my area. Something about the weather there in Florida is good on batteries

Yes! I agree he is a amazing pilot!!! He flight 4000m more in critical battery status. but You flight 1000 ~ 2000m and I lost my p3.

Just recently lost your P3?? What's the story

Have you guys tried any products like this for your XT 60 connectors on your externals? It makes plugging and unplugging so much easier! And you don't risk damaging a solder point.

I used dielectric grease on mine after you suggested it...holy **** did it make a difference...super easy now to unhook em after you come in for a landing..this is what I used..you got some coming your way db

Yep that'll do the trick! I pick my little packet up from the auto parts store counter for 97 cents! Night and day difference

Not sure if it provides as much "grease" effect as the packets or marine spray.

This stuff works wonders on dirty, worn contacts.

 

[Procharged97]

I use this for dirty contacts and board and motors

Did ya crash? Or did it land short? It sounds like maybe you completely lost it, which would be most unfortunate.
