Yeah, I was just being sarcastic. Sort of.

There's a MASSIVE amount of this info on You Tube if people just look for it.

Wrong.... As the guy asked... You DON'T just press the button and it turns on

Press it once...

Then press it again and hold the button down.

It will come to life then [emoji4]

When you press the button once, the battery status is shown. He's trying to see if the battery is functional or not.

To see if the battery is functional hold down the battery button for 5 seconds. Then it will flash.... The more lights that show up the better the health is of the battery

Hi Eric
Where did you get that information? From DJI? I'm just wondering what constitutes general 'health' of the battery
