Choosing the right Lipo drone battery depends on voltage, capacity, and discharge rate (C rating). Below is a complete guide for optimal performance across different FPV platforms.
1.6–2 Inch Whoop (Indoor FPV) Battery Recommendations
Voltage: 1S LiPo / LiHV
Capacity: 300–450 mAh
Discharge Rate: 30C–60C
Use Case
Indoor flying
Beginners
Tight spaces
2–2.5 Inch Toothpick (Ultra-Light Outdoor FPV) Battery Recommendations
Voltage: 2S–3S LiPo
Capacity: 450–650 mAh
Discharge Rate: 50C–80C
Use Case
Outdoor freestyle
Long flight time
Lightweight cruising
3–4 Inch Mini FPV Battery Recommendations
Voltage: 3S–4S LiPo
Capacity: 650–1100 mAh
Discharge Rate: 60C–100C
Use Case
Freestyle
Cinematic
Light payload
5-Inch FPV Drones Battery Recommendations
Voltage: 4S / 6S LiPo
Capacity: 1300–1800 mAh (6S) / 1500–2200 mAh (4S)
Discharge Rate: 100C–160C
Tuning Suggestion
For racing competitions, we recommend using our 160C standard-voltage series for optimal performance.
For freestyle, go with our 120C LiHV series. It’s lighter than standard packs, feels more responsive, and delivers more punch.
7-Inch FPV Drones Battery Recommendations
Voltage: 6S LiPo
Capacity: 3000–8000 mAh
Discharge Rate: 70C–110C
Tuning Suggestion
For freestyle flying, we recommend our 2600–3000 mAh LiHV or standard-voltage LiPo batteries. These packs are lightweight and provide better agility and responsiveness.
If your priority is maximum flight time, we recommend our 4000–8000 mAh 70C series (LiPo or LiHV). With moderate weight, they deliver significantly longer endurance.
For pilots who want a balance between agility and flight time, our 4500 mAh or 5200 mAh 110C series is the ideal choice.
8 to 10-Inch FPV Drones Battery Recommendations
Voltage: 6S LiPo
Capacity: 8000–12000 mAh
Discharge Rate: 40C–100C
Tuning Suggestion
40–50C → Maximum endurance
60–100C → Payload + stability
Larger Than 10-Inch FPV Drones Battery Recommendations
FPV drones larger than 10 inches are typically designed for long-range, heavy payload, and industrial applications, requiring high voltage systems and large-capacity batteries for stable power delivery instead of burst power.
Capacity: 8000–22000 mAh
Discharge Rate: 20C–60C
