RC India

Merry Christmas to all, if it's not too late.
Hope you guys are having an awesome time in this hobby, and we intend to make it slightly better.

Today, we're launching a battery pack that will help you to be worry-free about the safety and the flight time of your drone, and channel yourself towards the actual flying experience. And it's a first of the many to come.

At the core is lithium ion technology. It's not new and it can be found in electric vehicles (Tesla to name one), mobile phones and surprisingly the parent of lipoly packs which all of us use currently.
Yeah, these are 18650 and 21700 cells, just to name a few, but we present it specifically tailored to the needs of this hobby.

Our main focus is on the user experience. To making it better. Hence safety, reliability and durability take the top spots.
You can use the pack very well within the specs, but even if something goes bad, we got your back. Every pack will have an inbuilt electrical fuse (apart from thermal fuse) which will cutoff the supply in case of a short, hardened casing if it falls, and a life cycle expectancy of over 400 charge/discharge cycles.
These are where we are.

Over the coming order cycles, we will be adding features to the pack, every pack being the safest, and better.

I'd like to mention some of them here.
1. Carbon Fiber reinforced casings (rods and base plates): That will unofficially make every such packs the most rugged. Practically usable in every condition including being waterproof.
2. A universal connector: XT60 and XT90 are one of the best connectors out there. But let's admit, it's damn hard to plug and unplug in the field. And it's for a reason: Safety. We have a better option in mind. Something you can plug and unplug with a snap, easy to use, and yet terribly safe.
3. Smart Battery packs: Once we hit the first two milestones, we will mainstream smart packs; which will give you an analysis of your flight, discharge rates, and suggest improvements. Best thing? Even safer. It will be monitored by a microcontroller.
4. Smart Chargers: As the name suggests, it will be smart. All you need to do is plugin. It will track the health of each individual cells, notify for a service/fault, and charge the battery pack according to it's condition.

All the features will be standard once they start rolling out.

Prices and more details will be followed shortly during the day. thanks :)

Will these lithium ion batteries will have high C rating like 75C??

We've 3 models to offer.

P25: 5000mAh, 60A (max continuous), 120A (burst), 300g , Rs.4000
P30: 6000mAh, 40A (max continuous), 80A (burst), 300g , Rs.3600
P40: 8000mAh, 70A (max continuous), 140A (burst), 430g , Rs.4600

The prices and weights are only for this pack, that is in 3S2P configuration.
For now, 2P is the base configuration.

These are available in 2S through 15S and any number of parallel connections according to the requirement of the user.

These packs are meant for endurance flights. And NOT for small FPV quads; lipos are best for that category ;D
With the right setup, you can get 30+ minutes of flight time.

There's a 6 month warranty and free 6 month service for all the packs mentioned above.

The inbuilt fuses, at present can be swapped only by us, for now. In the coming cycle orders, we'll make sure the users can directly swap them out.

The prices are inclusive of a 30% discount. We want people to try them out, and give feedback. Shipping is inclusive as well.

We're presently building P30 4S6P pack for a fellow hobbyist from Kerala.
It's a 4S 18Ah pack for his hexacopter.

The cells are being shipped to us, and once it gets completed, I'll post the photos.

For orders, please PM either @Team Dronish or @Aravind298.
You can contact/WhatsApp me at 9790442725.

hi,

can you post pics of the battery's

The cells for the first order, for a fellow hobbyist, as mentioned above is on its way. It will reach us in a few days. We'll assemble the pack and post the photos once it's done.

Higher C ratings not doable? I want 3s packs , 5000mah.
Want 6s, will use 2 as a dual 3s in series. But need 150A continuous so has to be 30C discharge rate
