hi, i have the same problem, after 2 minutes of flying i get a warning message on the console about the battery voltage. So if anyone know how to resolve this problem we are waiting for... changing the battery values i think there is no manner, i've searched for this solution and i didn't found anything, but is there a way to modify the battery type (in the sitl there is a 3S with low mAH i think) if just we can change for exemple 4S with 5000mAh or something like.....

Hello, I am working on the same thing too. I found default.parm files under sitl but there is nothing about battery except BATT_MONITOR and I don't think that its related to the battery type or anything, so if someone can help it would be really great.

Hi

You can change the battery values on the ArduPilot SITL after starting the SITL. Use the param command. In the SITL terminal start with "param show SIM_BATTERY*" no quotations, astrix at the end, and it should show your current battery voltage.

Change the value with param set SIM_BATTERY {VALUE}
