What to check before you buy
- Capacity and weight
- More mAh gives longer flights but adds weight; compare capacity with the all-up weight your frame and motors are built for.
- C rating
- Check the continuous discharge rating against the peak current of your motors; burst figures are only for a few seconds.
- Connector
- Check the plug (XT30, XT60, XT90, EC5 or anti-spark) matches your aircraft and is rated for its current.
- LiPo or LiHV
- LiHV packs charge to 4.35 V per cell; use a charger and a flight controller voltage setting that support it.
- Dimensions
- Compare length, width and height with your battery bay or top plate and strap length.
- Shipping
- Ask how the packs are packed and shipped; lithium batteries travel as dangerous goods.
8S LiPo batteries FAQ
What voltage is a 8S LiPo?
29.6 V nominal, 33.6 V fully charged and about 28.0 V when it should be landed.
Why fly 8S instead of 6S?
Higher voltage gives the same power at lower current, so ESCs, wires and packs run cooler.
What does the C rating mean?
Discharge current as a multiple of capacity: a 1,500 mAh 100C pack is rated for 150 A, though real packs deliver less.
