LiPo 400mAH 10C usable?

Post by Cornflake »

Hi
I bought a LiPo from Conrad.
Its Data:
Capacity: 400 mAH
Nom. voltage: 3,7V
Charging current: max. 0.8A
Discharging current: max. 6A
... 10C

Do you think i can load it on my Crazyflie without burning my home or Crazyflie?

You most likely can but check if it has a PCM (protection circuit). It can save you and protect it from over/under charging.

10C might be a bit low and often those batteries don't work well during burst discharge but only a test will tell ;).

Hi
I can't see if it has a PCM. And another Problem the plug is a little bit too large. it is ok to cut it smaller ?

If it is possible yes but make sure to get the polarity right (red connects to +). I'm not sure it is possible though and it might not create a good connection.

Hi

I'd like to buy a Crazyflie 2.0. But, it is available only in backorder. Have you an idea about a delivering date ?

Thanks

The Crazyflie 2.0 is supposed to ship mid December.
