Last couple of flights I have been getting a lot of audio alerts 'MESSAGE' with no accompanying text in the message list on the display. Looking at the exported alert file I find a bunch of BACKUP BATT LOW CHARGE alerts that set and immediately clear. These are a bit of a nuisance as there is not much I can do inflight to change or charge the battery. Is there some reason the message does not simply latch for the remainder of the flight (power on cycle)?

Here is an example of two from a list of 15 that occurred over a 16-minute period.

If you don't want to fix your battery problem, you could just disconnect it. That would make the messages go away. What software version are you running? Are you still running a single D1000?
