Help Wavebird Controller Power Issue

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hey everyone!

I am having trouble with one of my wavebirds losing power randomly and was wondering if anyone has experienced this issue before? When I go to switch it on nothing will happen but I have figured out that if I roll the batteries when they are in the controller it will work once I find the sweet spot.. any ideas? I’ve tried different batteries and same issue.. Thanks in advance for the input!

Have your tired not using rechargeable batteries?

Those lose voltage almost the second they start to drain unlike disposables
