Good video guys. Thanks. What may also be a useful number is to work out the grams per minute of flying time to see which battery does the best job for its weight. For the Zippy Compact 4s 5000mah, this number is 51.6g/minute. For the Max Amps 4s 5450mah, this number is 28.0g/minute. For the Zippy Compact 6s 5000mah, this number is 40.6g/minute. So in terms of weight, the Max Amps is the most efficient.
Thanks for posting this video. It's cleared up a few questions I've long had on battery choices for various models. Do the higher performance batteries have a significantly longer lifespan? In other words are they capable of more charge/discharge cycles in their usable lifespan?
Yes, but the best way to preserve any battery is just not over using it, running the battery too hard and too low a voltage, and keeping it at a storage charge when not in use.
how is that poss..i have a hex with t-motor 3508 att 580kv with 13 inch props on a tarot frame and with 10amp 4s battery i get 13 mins.. must be something wrong with my setupp. Dji A2. YKS 4s 10000mah 25c battery High discharge model. Tarot 680 T.motor 3508-20 580kv Turnigy multistar 30amp opto esc. cf 13 inch props. h3-3d gimbal with gopro iosd with zenmuse And TS-832 5,8ghz .. could it be the esc going bad ? i bought the settup 2nd hand.would presciate those with knowledge to give me some tips

We are working towards doing a battery more inclusive battery comparison video soon. Good idea about the gram pr minute figures.

well? i dont agree with under 3.3 will damage the battery
under 3.0v will harm the battery
