Will these packs fit?

[bundydeity]

ok last item i need for my oxy2

batteries... will these graphene packs fit under the canopy? keep in mind i will be using the XT60 connectors it comes with, as my Talon25 has these soldered on already
just want to confirm i wont have fitment issues before i order 4 of them

Not sure if those will fit...but I use the Lectron Pro 950mAh and they fit just fine...

Have enough wire so you can run the battery cable thru the hole in the bottom of the canopy and connect after the canopy is installed...assuming your ESC lead is long enough...

Just need to change the battery connectors to XT60 and you'll be set

Now the link shows 3s, but below they write "you buy 4s".

Anyway, extremely expensive for 3s ca. 1000 mAh - more than 20 bucks.
Get highest quality 3s packs for about half of the price or little more - at least here in EU (SLS, MyLipo).

Oh well...it's just an incorrect listing

Not uncommon on eBay...

I've corrected many sellers...even Horizon Hobby when they pictured BLH3501 and offered BLH3601 (mCPX V1/V2 3n1 board)

When I buy the Lectron Pro 950 at My LHS they change the connector to XT30 for free

I'm using the 3 cell 1000 mAh Graphine with my O2. I did find though that the Dean's connection allowed more space and switched them all out.

I use those exact 1000mah Graphene batteries in mine and its a cozy fit and you really need to get the cable lengths right on the battery and esc so the plugs dont skew the canopy but they do fit!

I use xt30 connecters, they are tiny and light

I think the XT-60 could cause you issues, given its size. I have had connectors get in the way more than any other thing on some systems I have flown. The Oxy 2 battery space is pretty big though.

[bundydeity]

well ive ordered 4 anyway. seems options in this size are very limited locally so seem to be basically my only choice.

[ahummingbird]

XT30's will definately help the fit and I will probably change mine over to the 30's soon as well as adjust the cable lengths to get it just right.

[bundydeity]

ill see how i go. maybe i can move canopy holes if i need to. i try avoid soldering im not the best at it

[ahummingbird]

I'm happy to lend a hand if you want mate
I'm away for work for a week or so, but msg me when they arrive if you want to change them

I can confirm that the Tattu 3s 1050mah 45c lipo packs will fit, even with the wires coming out toward the front of the heli.

The battery weighs in at just under 90g, which is almost 15g lighter than the 1000mah graphene packs, and still has 50mah more capacity, and the same output rating (45c)

They come pre-terminated with XT60, come with plastic guards for the balance lead, and can be made even lighter by shortening the main leads, removing the balance protector, or using smaller main connectors.

Just thought id share my experience.

[bundydeity]

thought id update for anyone is looking to put larger packs in.
these are a very tight fit, im not even sure changing to xt30 would help much. id say this is the biggest you can go without modifying canopy mount holes etc.. really have to push the canopy on.

Bear in mind that Graphene packs tend to be on the larger and heavier size.

I'm running some Nano-tech 1300mAh packs in my Oxy, and while it's snug, the canopy fits on cleanly without any problems.

[bundydeity]

interesting thanks. what flight time you getting and how heavy are they?

i should note too after maybe 9 flights i think the canopy has loosened a little. i feed the esc cable through hole in bottom of canopy, battery balance plug tucked under velcro strap and battery plug out the side of canopy. bonus with this is i can plug pack in with the canopy on and im actually pretty happy with this arrangement.
canopy is still tight but goes on easily.

im running i think about 4700 headspeed in idle up 2 (havent tach'd it yet to confirm) and so far 4 min flights of circuits i come down at around 30%. im still flying with the brain bluetooth module too so this may improve a little once i take it off, not sure.

[myxiplx]

With an EC2 connector they're 108g, and I'm getting around 4mins of flight time.

I've used a cable tie to fix my EC2 socket inside the frame at the front, so the wires all fit comfortably inside the canopy.
