Vcanz-Power recently sent us their latest 4S LiPo batteries – 1350mah 75C and 95C, and 1550mah 75C. In this review we will test them on a mini quad and compare their performance to some well known brands in the market.
Over-discharged LiPo batteries sometimes cannot be recognized by LiPo chargers when their cell voltages drop below 3V. In this incidence, I accidentally over-discharged my LiPo battery in my radio transmitter by forgetting to turn it off. In this article I will show you how I fixed it.
Thanks to Acehe for sending us their latest LiPo batteries – the Formula 4S 95C 1300mAh and 1500mAh for testing. In this review we will put them on a mini quad and see how they perform.
Looking for recommendation of 4S LiPo batteries for 5″ and 6″ FPV mini quad? In this article we revealed some of the best batteries recommended by the community in April 2017.
Multirotors (aka drones) are fueled by LiPo battery, they are able to store and deliver large amount of power. In this guide you will learn how to read the spec of LiPo for your mini quadcopter, and how to choose and handle them safely.
Parallel charging allows you to charge multiple LiPo batteries at once using a single charger. Parallel charging is also a more effective and faster way of charging your batteries.
Travelling with a drone includes some inherent inconveniences, but a little preparation can ensure friendlier skies. Here are some basic rules to follow on how to travel with mini quad and LiPo batteries on an air-plane.
The inevitable question for RC hobbyists is how to get rid of old or damaged LiPo (Lithium polymer battery). There are tons of Youtube videos showing how dangerous LiPo batteries can be if not handled correctly, causing explosions and fire flames. So how do we dispose damaged or old LiPo batteries safely?
I have been using the Dronelab 50C 4S batteries, and I really like them. Recently they released a new version which is branded 75C and I am going to test it see how they perform compared to the old drone lab.
Today we are testing 2 new LiPo batteries for racing mini quad, the Tattu and Dinogy. We will also compare the performance against the Drone Labs in our flight test.
Hans Turpyn, a group member of Multicopter International Facebook Group showed me how he fix damaged/defective LiPo batteries by combining the good cells.
We have been hearing good things about LiHV batteries, which is reportedly better than traditional LiPo, especially for mini quad racing. I ran some tests and tried to find out which battery is better.
