FAQ

Which transmitters is this battery compatible with? This battery is designed specifically for the RadioMaster TX16S and fits directly into the transmitter's battery compartment.

Why choose a Li-ion battery over a LiPo? Li-ion batteries typically offer higher energy density, longer operating times and excellent cycle life, making them ideal for low-current devices such as RC transmitters.

What is the XT30 connector used for? The XT30 output provides a convenient power source for compatible external RF modules, such as the TBS Crossfire module, without requiring additional battery modifications.

How should I charge this battery? Charge the battery using a quality charger with a dedicated Li-ion charging mode. The maximum recommended charge current is 2A.

How long will it power my transmitter? Operating time depends on your transmitter settings, screen brightness and any external RF modules in use, but the 5000mAh capacity provides substantially longer runtime than standard transmitter battery packs.
