Those Popping Batteries

[excalibur1814]

Every single time, before flying, I'd insert the battery ensuring it was all the way in and then gently pull back a little to make sure. I had 5 batteries. Over 50 flights. No issues. Maybe I'm lucky! (Thankfully)

Hi Team,

So where are we at lately with the dreaded "battery disconnect " debarcle.

Ive gone from not caring about getting that battery in to being super paranoid about how it goes in. I push the batt tabs in , slip the battery in place and then give it a tug to see what happens - is this good enough to be safe?
Ive seen all kinds of opinion on this - I cant afford an upgrade so just how loose does that battery ned to get to create a problem do we know?

Just remember it clicks from the bottom AND the top. TWO clicks. After 200+ flights, no battery incidents.
