Li-Ion vs Li-Po Comparison on a Cinewhoop - 21700 Molicel P42A 4S
Do you even Li-Ion, bro? Will a 4S 21700 battery be too heavy for a Cinewhoop? How much more flight time could you get? After watching the video, those questions are potentially unanswered, but the process was fun nonetheless and indeed my STRIKING FPV Brand 4S Li-Ion did the job. Want to build your own? You're in luck! The TPU caps that I used to build the battery can be downloaded from Thingiverse, no questions asked, however there are no instructions on how to build it, yet. In fact, I originally planned a build video, but due to unforeseen circumstances, said video didn't make it past the spot-welding failure. Still planning to do the build in the future, but for now, here are the TPU cap STL files: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:496... Just FYI, the quad in question is a 3" Reptile Cloud-149HD Cinewhoop, currently my only quad. As mentioned in the video, I have plans to convert it to a 3.5" Faux Protek (Fauxtek?) in an attempt to improve efficiency and increase flight time, so stay tuned for that video. If anyone's wondering what the "Augmented Speed 20% Increase" is all about, all my flights are shot in 25 or 50 frames per second and retimed to conform to a 30fps output, which results in a speed increase of 20%. I decided to continue doing this for these test flights so it effectively reduces the total watch time of each flight, overall shortening the video. Don't ask me why I decided to put all three flights up again at the end of the video... === 🔔 Subscribe for more content like this: 🔗 https://www.youtube.com/strikingfpv?s... 👍 If you like what I do, please consider supporting me: ☕️ https://buymeacoffee.com/strikingfpv === 💥 STRIKING FPV is a cinematic FPV drone operator based in Thailand, wanting to show the beauty of this country from a new perspective - evidently also likes tinkering and is happy to show you how stuff can be made / strikingfpv / strikingfpv === 🕓 Chapters: 00:00 Intro 00:10 STRIKING FPV Li-Ion 4S 4200mAh Battery 01:10 Disclaimer 01:30 The Equipment 02:06 The Batteries 03:08 Battery Weights 03:43 Warm-Up Flight 04:25 Testing Methodology 06:43 1350mAh Flight 09:41 1550mAh Flight 13:04 Maiden Flight Notes 13:49 Li-Ion 4200mAh Flight 19:19 Post-Flight Thoughts 19:40 Chunky Cinewhoop 20:14 Flight Time Comparison 20:44 STL Files Available 21:38 Future Quad Mods 22:06 Closing Thoughts 22:42 Three Flights Side-by-Side 28:06 Bloopers
