G+_Taylor Graham Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Where did you find batteries for your syma quad Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ? I remember you saying you "upgraded the battery". Are you using the Turnigy 750mAh nano-tech batteries? I'm one of the masses that bought the syma per your recommendation (bet their sales went up). I got the quad sans camera (x5) and removed the prop guards (6g), and the landing gear (3g). With my 500mAh battery, I'm getting 11-12 minutes. I have some 600s on the way as well, but batteries of this size are kinda hard to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 My favorite place right now is: http://www.banggood.com/Syma-X5-16-X5C-3_7V-600MAH-Upgrade-Battery-Meal-p-941270.html 5 x 600mAh packs + 5-way charger for $18 + free shipping. But they are ALL over Amazon. I thought about going with the 750mAh... but it's not too much of a pain to swap out every 10-15 minutes, and the smaller batteries weigh less. With something like the trainer, every gram counts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Taylor Graham Posted November 3, 2014 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 Sweet. Just ordered a set and a lipo bag. Thanks! The 750mah batteries also stretch that little cross member in the battery compartment. I read about some that broke. Not too big a deal, but ill just skip it and go with the 600s.
