Could battery cause yaw error?

Just had a nasty almost flyaway experience.
I have six batteries, three of which (I have marked them and am starting to Keep record to prove/disprove my theory) always produce a yaw error in the flight log.
My other three never give yaw errors.

Today I was flying and as expected - got a nasty yaw error where the spark just did it's own thing again. I initiated RTH and it looked like the spark was going to land in the water so I cancelled RTH and safely flew it back to me.

I fitted another (unmarked) battery and the flight record was perfect.

Thus my theory - the battery must have something to do with the yaw error.
The flight record is at: Yo
DJI Flight Log Viewer - PhantomHelp.com
I would be interested to hear your oppinion.

Thanks

I have also been keeping a study log on the batteries.
I have found varying issues depending on how recently the battery was charged.
I now only fly when the battery being used was charged within 2 hours.

Be interested in seeing what your results are.
