    tenergy tb6b lipo charging for 1s

    Yeah I’ll be wanting to get batteries to full charge and also to storage charge without needing to babysit. Thanks for the advice!

    tenergy tb6b lipo charging for 1s

    Brilliant, found it on their site just now. So this will also float across the batteries even when doing storage?

    tenergy tb6b lipo charging for 1s

    Yeah that iSDT is super nice ?. After some more research I did end up getting the Tenergy, delivered yesterday in fact. Next problem ?, the 1s don’t have balance cables so not exactly sure how I hook these up. Do I need to buy a dedicated charger cable for 1s batteries? Someone had pointed me to...

    tenergy tb6b lipo charging for 1s

    Hi all, I’ve been looking closely at this Tenergy tb6b for my 1s batteries. Was curious if others would recommend it. I believe with 1s, since balancing isn’t a concept per se, that I’d be using the charging function of this instead of the balancing function? Does anyone know if the discharging...

    HappyModel 1s battery lifetime

    Awesome, I’ll give these a shot! Like other lipos, is there a recommended voltage to keep these at during storage?

    HappyModel 1s battery lifetime

    Yeah this reminds me that I’ve not been the best about storing them at a good voltage when not flying. So I’ve been a little neglectful with these batteries which probably isn’t helping their overall life span

    HappyModel 1s battery lifetime

    I have a few of the 250 mah happymodel 1s batteries that come with the mobula7. I’ve had them for a couple months but have probably done about 15-20 full charges on them in their lifetime. Many of them are now not charging anywhere close to their max voltage and are starting to get puffy. Is...

    mobula7 f4 fc - might have killed it

    Hi all, Attempted to port my mobula7 over to a new crazybee f4 flight controller. My soldering skills are pretty new, thought I had success but I'm getting a weird sequence of chirps and seems something is really not right with the FC. I took a video as I plugged the batteries in to show what...

    Issues with mobula7 on FlySky transmitter

    I thought it must be some setting in BetaFlight as well. I can't seem to find anything in there that's contributing to this. The attached screenshot shows my Configuration tab. And for modes, right now the only thing enabled is the Arm mode. And to describe the extra beeping: - When I connect...

    Issues with mobula7 on FlySky transmitter

    That’s right, I can look into posting a YouTube video to show it better if that helps

    Issues with mobula7 on FlySky transmitter

    Hi all, I'm having issues with getting my mobula7 craft to work with my Flysky receiver, I'd had an earlier mobula7 that didn't have these issues so not sure I've got a mad quad or if it's something I've done. Binding went like so: I get the transmitter into binding-mode, then connected one 1s...

    mobula7 and eachine ev800d, improve video quality

    Can I ask what antenna set you upgraded to? I’m pretty unfamiliar with the options that are out there

    mobula7 and eachine ev800d, improve video quality

    Yeah the static sets in way before 700 meters for me. And it can be bad enough that I’m disoriented enough I need to bring the quad down. I’ll make sure the vtx antenna isn’t dislodged somehow from a previous crash. I’ll try the manual setting as well. Aside from this, any recommendations on...

    mobula7 and eachine ev800d, improve video quality

    Hi all, pretty new to fpv, been flying more los in the past. I’ve picked up a mobula7 as well as Eachine ev800d goggles. The setup seemed pretty easy and straight forward but one thing I’m noticing is that the range seems to be pretty limited before I get a lot of static in the goggles. The...
