Frequently Asked Questions

Is this battery compatible with my large fixed-wing plane or 450 helicopter?

Yes, if your aircraft uses a 6S (22.2V) battery with an XT60 plug and the battery bay fits 139 × 44 × 31mm. Specifically designed for large fixed-wing RC planes, 450-class RC helicopters, EDF (ducted-fan) jets, and medium gliders. Verify voltage, bay dimensions, and plug type before ordering.

What does XT60 mean? Is it the same as XT30, Deans T, or 4mm Bullet?

XT60 is a two-pin connector with a center tab. It is NOT interchangeable with XT30 (smaller), Deans T (T-shaped), 4mm Bullet (banana-style pins), or any other plug type. Check your aircraft’s original plug or manual to confirm it is XT60 before ordering.

Can I charge this with a standard LiPo balance charger?

Yes. This is a genuine 6S LiPo battery (unlike our 2S Li-ion toy packs). It charges via the JST-XH balance lead using a standard 6S LiPo balance charger. Recommended charge rate: 1C (3.3A) for daily use, up to 2C (6.6A) for quick turnaround. Always charge on a fireproof surface and never leave unattended.

 How long does it take to fully charge?

At 1C (3.3A), approximately 60 minutes. At 2C (6.6A), approximately 30 minutes. Use a charger rated for 6S (up to 25.2V). Do not use a Li-ion USB charger on this pack.

What is 35C discharge? Can I push it harder for short bursts?

35C means this pack safely sustains approximately 115A continuous (3300mAh × 35C). Most LiPo packs tolerate short 3–5 second bursts at 1.5–2× the C rating (up to ~170–230A) for aggressive takeoff or full-throttle pull-ups. For sustained high-current use (EDF jets, 450 heli full throttle), we recommend staying at or below the 35C continuous rating to protect cycle life.

How many charge cycles can I expect?

Under normal use with proper charge/discharge practices (avoid deep discharge below 19.8V, store at 40–60% charge), expect up to 350 cycles before noticeable capacity fade. Avoid storing fully charged or fully drained for extended periods.

Is this suitable for competition or F3A use?

No. F3A aircraft typically use 5S (18.5V) batteries, often 2 packs in parallel for extended capacity and stable discharge. This is a 6S (22.2V) pack — the voltage is incompatible. For F3A, look for a 5S 4000–5000mAh 35C+ pack with a matching connector.

What comes in the box?

1× PCEONAMP 6S 3300mAh 22.2V 35C LiPo battery (XT60 plug, JST-XH balance lead), 1× LiPo storage box, 1× user manual.

What connector and uses are listed?

It has a 4mm bullet plug. Listed uses include F3A, fixed wing, 450/550 helicopters, gliders, and EDF.
