I have the same thing going on with mine. Do you or have you been flying it alot?? I think it is the kind of batterys I am buying, because I get them from the .99 cent store. So I am going to try top of the line new one's and see what happens? Mine is only that old too but I have been flying it all the time not hard or crashing or anything like that. Have you talked to your LHS ? And what did they tell you? Are you taking the batterys down to where the flash when they are in the blade when it is flying? But ten bucks for a battery that only last twenty times is not very good.
