[QUOTE="I B Spectre, post: 103217, member: 18605"] Obviously DJI wants you to send your RC back to them for repair (likely will be swapped out for another "refurbished" unit). Amazon used to carry an "OEM Remote Controller Battery Replacement for DJI Spark, Mavic Air, Mavic Pro", but it is now listed as "Currently unavailable. We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock". My guess is DJI did not want them to be available and want the $65 fee (shipping included both ways). If you can find the battery, it's the 3.7V 2970mAh - Model: 973760[SIZE=3] [/SIZE][SIZE=4]one that Spark 317 pictured. Here are a couple of YT videos that show how to access the RC's innards:[/SIZE] [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGR782DBLzQ']Spark RC disassembly #1[/URL] does a pretty good job of showing how to get the case open, but doesn't go into too much depth beyond that. [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IJay2bi22Q']Spark RC disassembly #2[/URL] goes into much greater depth, but poorly framed allowing you to see what he's doing only about half the time. ebay has a [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IJay2bi22Q']Replacement Spark battery[/URL] but at $65 plus $5.35 shipping, it makes more sense to let DJI do it if you can put up with the wait.
