    It sure is. I'm surprised the Phantom can lift it.

    I don't know what they would patent about this. They sure can't patent the power monitoring. Phones and laptops have been doing that since the get go. Maybe it's just a design patent on the packaging. They could do that. I hope that's not it so nobody else can clone it. That batt is mega expensive and only works in the Phantom-2. Sure wish a bigger batt would fit in the regular Phantom. There is a lot of chatter about a Phantom 2 without all the camera stuff. I suppose to expand the capability of the old version.

    Maybe they patented the battery connector failures they were having when they introduced this?

    I didn't hear about failures. What's up with that?

    Is seems that fully charged batteries are giving "Invalid Battery" errors and causing automatic forced landings. Some have reported that their Phantom Vision took off on it's own only to land itself remotely.
