PreArm: Battery 1 capacity failsafe critical >= lo

ArduPlane Plane 4.6

I have tried FW versions 4.5.7 and 4.6.0 Beta6. Both give the error msg -

PreArm: Battery 1 capacity failsafe critical >= lo
almost immediately after powering up the FC (Matek H743WING).
The BATT_CAPACITY is 5000
the BATT_CRT_MAH is 1000

The displayed batt voltage is 16.3 and current is 1.2A

The only way I can get the message to go away and the craft to arm is to set the BATT_CRT_MAH to 0

What could be wrong?

I found an imperfect solution. If I set BATT_CRT_MAH to anything less than 1000, the error goes away.

That is normal. Your critical must be smaller than your BAT_LOW_MAH ( currently set at 1000)
