Welcome to the club of abandoned Autel owners, I still have an X-Star Premium, they did the same to us but with faulty batteries from the word go. They knew the batteries they shipped out were crap, and they never made any attempt to fix the issue, now, you can't find a working battery unless...

How did you manage to "rejuvenate" your batteries?

I totally feel ya, it's still a great drone, that takes excellent video and pics, we all just need new batteries. I am honestly really shocked that not a single company has tried to cash in on this opportunity of making 3rd party replacement batteries. If I was more connected in the drone scene...

Never saw an update on this, any luck, what was done to fix the batteries etc.?

I agree 100% the problem is that although Autel makes a good bit off of consumer drones, they could really care less as they has shown time and again. Mainly because their big money comes from the prosumer drones selling for $10,000-$20,000 or more for the Titan and the alpha series or even the...

I too am still holding out hope for a battery solution for the past few years, I have 2 practically brand new X-Stars that have only been flown a handful of times. Luckily I still have 3 working batteries, but this is just beyond corporate greed. Autel knew from the start there was a problem...

I also mean no disrespect, but would you buy a brand new car, just because your perfectly functional one has a dead battery? Imagine Chevy or Ford, etc.. would no longer sell you a battery to get your perfectly good and usable car running, just because it's 2 or 3 or 4 years old?

Thanks, I had tried using a 9v battery someone else said they had had luck with using, problem is you never really know how long to keep it connected without risk. I did manage to get one dead battery to at least show signs of life now, but it will not hold a 3 volt charge as of yet and drains...

Could you explain how you managed to "jumpstart" the dead battery, I still have 2 that I would love to bring back to life if possible. Thanks.

Was he successful? Or has anyone else had any luck bringing these batteries back to life , some method that does not rick life and limb?

So basically you just need like a balance connector plugged in, doesn't have to be an actual lipo tester? Or what kind of lipo tester, sorry for all the questions, but I'm finally going to try and get a charger to revive my 2 batteries,and want to make sure I get everything I need and right the...

OK, so I finally got a working battery, but now when I try to get started and connect, I'm not seeing the "x-star" ssid, I am guessing the person I purchase from changed it maybe, does anyone know how to reset the ssid of the remote to default? I tried looking in the pdf manul, but I couldnt...

Thank yo, any details you can find out on how he jump started them and what type of charger her used etc.. would be greatly appreciated. I have a brand new X-star with 2 dead batteries just sitting like everyone else,and I am dying to fly it atleast once before the FAA eventually bans them...

How do you plan on doing a rebuild? batteries, how did you pry the case open with out destroying? Thanks

How did he fix them? Details would be greatly appreciated.
