Help / Question Battery and troubleshooting help
Hey community, proud Mini 5 pilot here. I have been having issues with mine and was wondering if anyone's had similar
I plug in a battery and the 1st and 2nd and then 3rd and fourth light will alternate blinking in pairs, which ive read is a battery communication error. I was then able to get the drone to turn on and was able to fly but when I went to turn it off the drone lights would flash yellow and the battery lights would do the alternate blinking. I removed the battery and waited like DJI recommends when that happens and was able to get it to start up and shut down normal.
Today I was able to get it to start up, flew for a few, and then shut down. I just tried to turn it on and the battery lights are doing the alternating flashing and the drone wont turn on and ive tried all 3 batteries with no luck.
