[QUOTE="Spark 317, post: 116522, member: 894"] Hello from the Hoosier Heartland [URL='https://sparkpilots.com/members/plgnply.20592/']plgnply[/URL] . I hope the Spark survived the crash. The operating temperature range of the Spark is 32-104 F (0-40c) and the battery will be much warmer than that when flying in hot conditions. It may be possible that the battery swelled up a bit and popped itself off of the Spark. The battery is held on to the Spark with two spring loaded tabs and after installation, it's good to do a plug and tug to insure it's secure. I recently retired one of my batteries due to it swelling. I found it difficult to remove it from the Spark. The battery worked fine but I don't trust it and it sits in a metal box JIC. The Spark has been known to loose the battery during the flight due to the design of the small tabs. DJI released a second batch of batteries with larger tabs to help remedy this. The [S]nine,[/S] eight batteries I have are all first generation with no problems.
