- I use Li-Ion battery packs in the bulk of my aircraft. Their increased capacity is a worthwhile trade off for their lower discharge rate, for my use cases. In this video I'll share the design and ideas behind my DIY battery system.

Use at your own risk. Li-Ion batteries (and Li-Po batteries) contain remarkable amounts of power that can cause harm if misused, stored in an unsafe manner, charged incorrectly, or handled carelessly. Do not attempt to make a battery pack unless you are fully comfortable with accepting those risks, and have a firm understanding of what your doing. Please be careful.
Another Great video always a pleasure to watch . I have most of my long range on solderd 18650s and 21700 but I have always wanted to try this thanks for the how too . Again just keep up the great videos .
Take Care
Thanks for the comment. I was willing to take the weight penalty for the ability to swap cells, and better isolate my packs for travel.
This system has worked great for me for several years, and I wouldn't go back to lipos.
You've gotta be careful when loading your packs, but for me it's well worth it.
The autofocus on whatever camera you are using is super fast. Pretty wild.
Osmo Pocket 3. I’m very impressed with it.
Thanks for the comment!
In awe of your skills and presentation. Superb information and fabulous in all the videos and pertinent. Some clever comedy happening is always great.
Thank you for your note, I'm glad you enjoy it. I'm working on an interesting new project and should have something out shortly.
Thank you!
Very nice!
Thank you. I’m glad to share.
i welded 5000 mah li -ion
Nothing wrong with welded packs.
I arrived at my solution after having bought welded packs and having built my own welding setup to weld my own packs.
My packs suit my needs better for when I travel and I want to ensure the packs are isolated, and I do enjoy the ability to swap out cells, but a welded pack will be lighter if it's built right.
At the end of the day, they both get you flying.
Thanks for your comment.
