Good morning. My Spark lost it's battery while at 50m and crashed. It was only 3 weeks old. I'm so so disappointed. Has anybody else lost a battery while flying?

Thanks
Luc
 
A lot of people have had this happen, unfortunately. DJI did redesign the battery's with larger clips so they stay in better. Either you got old stock, or didn't have the battery locked in all the way. Either way, I'm sorry it happened!

I'm not sure what DJI's position is on this, but they may cover it under warranty. I'm sure others will chime in with their experiences. They do make several versions of battery straps or people have made their own.

If you use the forum search feature and search the word battery, I'm sure you'll find lots of posts regarding the issue.

Below is a thread with pictures of the old and new battery's.

Spark battery redesign?
 
I am just waiting for one of these, I lost a battery in a collision with a bush. Luckily, the spark landed on a rock, but the battery jumped off and landed in 25 ft of water and I couldn't find it.

Only cheap, 25 yuan or $3.61 USD
