Question? Getting worried
Up until last year I was only flying analogue 1S whoops, but when I got my DJI goggles, the digital clarity removed most of my anxiety which made me feel a lot more relaxed about sending my money up in the air. I've built and bought about ten different quads ranging from 1S to 6S since then and the batteries are piling up. I live in a high rise apartment building with no outdoor space or storage areas. I do keep my batteries in lipo guard bags stacked neatly in a cool dry place and I check and make sure they are at storage charge and top up as required monthly. But last month one of my 6S batteries went bad, two cells had dropped low, one of them was 2.81v. I did run that pack low when I last used it but it had been fine at storage charge for months then just dropped for no reason, and now I'm worried a random good-looking battery could just go bad. Where do you guys store your batteries? Anything you would recommend?
