TESTING 18650 BATTERIES FOR MULTICOPTERS

I like to inform everyone who is using a quadcopter or a multicopter that I have done numerus tests with the following batteries to see if are able to work with multicopters.
I used INR18650-25R and INR18650HG2 and made 6s2P packs

with the INR18650HG2 I made a 6s2P 6000mAh total of 40amps weight 597g. and with INR18650-25R I made a 6s2P 5000mAh total of 40amps weight 601g.

I used them on my quadcopter

With the INR18650-25R 5,000mAh I flow 20min. and with the INR18650HG2 6,000mAh I fow 21min see, my video at


with a 6s 5,000mAh Gens battery I fly 11min. 10min less.
after the flight the volts per cell were

3,28v
3,27v
3,27v

then I used two INR18650HG2 6s2P 6000mAh total of 80amps and my quadcopter flow for 30min.

my next test will be with the VTC5 batteries, I will make a 4s4P 10,000mAh weight at 720g 120amps and will use it on my hexacopter see picture.
On my hexa I'm using six 2213/920kv T motors and it weights with out the battery 1,780g.

Soo is that good then? Its lion worth the tradeoffs do you guys think? I want to swap the steel housing for carbon in the 18650 chocolates.
