Battery full, but drive won't run

It is possible for the battery to be fully charged but still not have enough voltage to power the drive because the capacity declines over time and with use. If your battery is around a year old, it may have just reached the end of its lifespan. Once a LiPo capacity drops to 80% of the original capacity, it is time to replace it. See: Original Battery Voltages to Know

The maximum capacity of a LiPo battery naturally declines both over time and with use. You can expect to replace the battery about once a year, but it's also not unheard of for the battery to last a bit longer. The main factor is how closely you follow the charging, use, and storage instructions. See Charging Home Original 11.1v battery

CAUTION: The battery should always be allowed to come to room-temperature before charging. Charging a hot or cold battery might delay charging or damage the battery. For best results, charge the battery at temperatures between 50º and 80ºF (10º-30ºC).
