Choosing a UAV battery

Voltage and aircraft compatibility

Check the supported cell count and voltage range against the aircraft and power electronics. Similar capacity labels do not establish compatibility.

Current, weight and flight demand

Compare the required continuous load, transient load, duration and installed weight. Flight time depends on the aircraft and duty cycle as well as the battery.

Connectors and handling

Confirm polarity, mating connector, cable exit and mechanical retention using the actual configuration. Product illustrations are not a connector pinout or wiring drawing.
