Buying Guide

Match cell count to your drone

Choose the correct voltage (2S = 7.4V) to match your drone’s power system and ESC limits to avoid underpowering or damaging components

Pick capacity for flight time

Higher mAh (e.g., 2200–6200mAh) gives longer flight time but increases weight; balance capacity with your frame and flight goals

Consider C-rating for performance

A higher continuous discharge (C) rating supports aggressive throttle bursts and reduces voltage sag during race maneuvers

Check connector type

Confirm the pack’s connector (XT60, T-plug/Deans, Traxxas-style) matches your drone or plan to use a proper adapter to avoid soldering mistakes

Shorty vs. full-size form factor

Shorty packs offer lower profile and better fit in tight frames, while larger packs (higher mAh) may need custom mounting or strap arrangements
