You say batteries "are new", but...How old are the batteries?
There's a lot of P2 batteries out there and some have sat unused for a while.
Are they puffy at all to the touch?
Your explanation sounds like the batteries have lost capacity. They will charge fully (voltage) but lack ability to store a charge.
They drone's LEDs are telling you the voltage is dropping and it will land to prevent a crash.
