Micro Heli Size & Battery Guide
“Micro” typically means 150–250 class with 150–280mm blades. The goal is simple: keep weight down and punch up, so your RC helicopter battery feels crisp on pitch pumps yet calm on hover.
Choosing Voltage & Capacity (Real-World Tips)
- 1S (300–550mAh): couch flying, indoor circuits, getting the feel back—easy, quiet, and gentle on gear.
- 2S (450–850mAh): your everyday outdoor choice; more punch and wind margin, the sweet spot for many micro helis.
- 3S (650–1500mAh): for spirited sport or micro 3D (think OMP M2 EVO). Watch all-up weight to keep CG and disc loading happy.
FAQ
Q1: What’s the difference between a toy helicopter battery and a micro RC heli battery?
A: Think toy tire vs. race tire. Toy packs can feel soft after a few flights and don’t like high current. CNHL micro RC helicopter batteries use higher C-rates and tougher cells, so you get repeatable punch and longer, steadier sessions.
Q2: Will CNHL packs fit my model?
A: Absolutely. We design around the micro standards most pilots use—Blade, Align, Goosky, OMP—along with the common connectors (PH2.0, JST-RCY, XT30) so it’s mostly plug-and-fly.
Q3: I’m searching for a remote control helicopter battery—what should I type?
A: Try terms like micro RC helicopter battery, micro heli batteries, or your model name (e.g., “Blade 230S battery”). You’ll land on the right packs faster.
