Battery Brands

I am looking for a new lipo battery and was curious if Zippy is a good brand.

You get what you pay for. Zippys are cheap, and they work, but not as well as the better brands.
But if you could be more specific, you might get a better answer.
What size are you looking at, and for what purpose?

Looking for a 4s around 5000mah 30c for a DJI F550 with T-Motor 2216 V2.0 motors. Thanks.

out of all the brands at HK that's the second worse.... I'd look at turnigy brand and unknown for now, but maybe better is the new multistar high density. i wanna test a set for myself.... the turnigy have good IR readings, are usually fresh and are hard to puff

Kloner, you still using the 2700 6s Zippy Compacts on your Disco Pros?

 

[kloner]

yes but i'm in transition to the 4000 mah tbs packs for obvious reasons.... the compacts didn't hold there ir real well, but these discos aren't stressing them very hard

Thanks,

I've got mine setup with the MT3508 380kv and 14 CF props using 4s now but have the 2700 Zippys but need to change my esc's first. Hoping the SimonK ZTW Spider 30AMP opto's work with these motors. With all the motor esc compatibility issues going on these days I'm a little concerned. Might go to 13 inch props too
