Which 6S LiPo is the BEST? Brutal Testing Revealed! MCK V2 vs Rline V5 vs 533 etc

I never would have thought to find myself laughing during a video about battery statistics but your humor is so good and the cut aways to other pilots chiming in is the cherry on top. Informative and so entertaining. Great video!

I have a few v5 from the first run an couple months back I’ve seriously abused them and after at least 250 cycles they still hold 80percent as new. Tattu is Amazing and definitely some of the best money you can spend in fpv.

[@Voyajer.]

Very interested to see these type of tests on the cheapest 6s batteries of similar size now

[@pablo98798]

great tests. I've been thinking that in addition to average cell voltage it would be really nice to have an actual per cell reading, because it is always the worse cell that drops first ruins the pack so knowing which manufacturer has the most consistent cells in their batteries would be nice, it also would be interesting to have a way to display the actual voltage of the lower cell on the OSD for an more real reading of when to land and get the most of the lipo.

I would be curious about the difference in degradation between top shelf vs budget batteries such as CNHL under the stresses a recreational freestyle type pilot might experience. It seems like this would be useful to the broadest group of hobby flyers.

Wish you could have tested some of the new CHNL Ultra Black's. Expensive but man I am loving these. Power loops with no battery warnings and spirited flight even down to 3.6v per cell without "Land Now"s is incredible. Edit: And way smaller than normal CHNL Black's relative to capacity.

[@IvanEfimovLimon]

i was thinking about CNHL... but after the white 6S series and some sketchy 3S (old freedom spec batts) move don't trust them... When they made same-label batteries with totally different performance

[@johnkurpiewski3996]

That R line fanning out like that was soooo crazy!!! My goggle batteries take the most abuse leaving them on and completely killing them , but a .1 amp slow charge and they are good to go and surprisingly not puffy , I’m guessing the high current draw to low voltage kills them indefinitely.

I noticed when strapping on a Tattu V5 that it felt like holding down the Nitrous button on a drag car! Also toward the end of a race my throttle position stays the same. Also I have gotten 3 bad Tattu V4s with cell 1 either no voltage or with 1 volt!!!

[@RCRitterFPV]

Would using some bigger motors make it easier to get the amp draw without overheating motors? would the results be the same if you used pulses to make a 2 min flight.... more of a freestyle flight... like 3 secs on 3 secs off until 3.3v...

[@IvanEfimovLimon]

Yeah bigger motors and props would do it for sure. As for pulses, would be interesting to see how deep battery sags as them. But the battery sag is so quick, it's usually less than 1 cycle of betaflight voltage reading so hard to measure.

[@RCRitterFPV]

Not sure if i missed it, but what was the Amp draw at full throttle on the rpm limit? @@IvanEfimovLimon

[@IvanEfimovLimon]

@@RCRitterFPV it started at ~65A and finished at ~75A. +/- my battery calibration in Betaflight against my charger.

Does anyone else have Tattu v5 1400 where 1 cell is dead after few cycles? Dont know...but for me...i am done with tattu v5 so far! 3 lipos out of 4 died way to early! My choice here in germany is bonka 1380 at the moment

[@lemonsquareFPV]

From 200, 4 had to get replaced… but I am quite unlucky for this type of stuff, so I’m not sure what the reality is 😜 Thankfully customer support is one of the best, and they got replaced. I never had an issue after that.

[@tonhabraken9339]

So it’s best to get 1 cell from each and combine them into 1 6s? Or did I misunderstand? 😅 … how long do you batts usually survive when racing over concrete??

[@IvanEfimovLimon]

It's not as bad, cu I also have 3D printed protection for night spot :) and I started storage charging them at the end of the night. So probably 30-40 cycles I would guess

[@vertigo2893]

@@IvanEfimovLimon Not a clue, sorry. But it would already help if your merch provider collected VAT and/or showed the expected costs to the EU. I mean, I would have bought a few of them, since a big part of the fee is a flat fee for inspecting the package.

[@audiogek]

Would it be possible to let BF limit throttle according to battery voltage? So it would never go lower than for example 3.3V.

[@IvanEfimovLimon]

As battery goes low, then it goes lower and lower very quick. At 3.3 V you really got just a few seconds to land. Even if rpm is low...

[@audiogek]

@@IvanEfimovLimon What I really meant was with throttle punches towards the end of the flight. Not when the lipo is already empty.

[@IvanEfimovLimon]

​@@audiogekinteresting. Maybe that's possible... Just during pinch outs the voltage drops low pretty quick, faster than motors spin up fast

This is my experience too! Personally, if I need a battery right now, I can always get Tattu locally in minutes, but I really love working with Dogcom and get regular shipments directly from them. For good cheap batteries I also love working with CODDAR and am very happy with them too. I do still get GNB test batteries, but I haven’t bought anything or worked with them for almost a year. It’s been 60% Dogcom, 20% Tattu, 20% CODDAR recently, and I have been really, really happy with this mix!

OK, so R-Line v.5 are not overpriced. Now I want know just how crappy the cheap batteries I buy are (because shit pilots like me destroy a fair number of lipos).
