FAQ
What’s the best battery size for 7-inch FPV quads?
6S 4000–5200mAh LiPo batteries provide the best balance between weight, endurance, and stability.
Can I use Li-ion packs instead of LiPo?
Yes, for long-range cruising. Li-ion packs (18650/21700) offer longer flight times but lower burst output, best for smooth flying and cinematic shots.
What flight time can I expect?
Depending on prop efficiency and flying style, expect 10–25 minutes with 6S 5200–6200mAh packs on a 7–10″ long-range quad.
