This pack is designed for large hexacopter (6-rotor) and octocopter (8-rotor) industrial drones with 12"–15" propellers — the kind of platform you see in agricultural spraying, large-area mapping, power line inspection, and heavy-payload cargo operations.

At 200 × 96 × 66mm and 2659g, it fits the battery bay of a mid-to-large hexa frame. The 25C (575A) continuous rating is specifically matched to the sustained current draw of 6-motor hexa builds at full throttle, where a single quad can’t deliver the thrust-to-weight ratio.

Before ordering, verify:

• Battery bay clearance: at least 200 × 96 × 66mm
• Connector: AS150U on your ESC (or adapter)
• Voltage: ESC rated for 6S HV 22.8V (26.1V max input)
• Charger supports 6S HV mode (4.35V/cell)

A six-rotor hexa at 12"–15" prop size with 150–400KV motors draws 250–500A sustained at full throttle depending on AUW (aircraft weight + payload). At 60–80% cruise throttle (typical for spraying and mapping), the draw is still 150–350A sustained for 30+ minutes.

This pack’s 25C rating (575A continuous) gives you:

• Comfortable thermal margin so cells don’t overheat during long sustained-throttle missions
• Stable voltage under load — less sag means more consistent motor output across all 6 motors
• Longer cell life — cells running at 50–60% of their max capacity degrade slower than cells running at 90%+

A 15C pack (345A max) would work for a light hexa but would be at its thermal limit on a loaded 6-rotor spraying platform. The 25C rating is the correct match for this class of drone.

This is a 6S HV pack — 3.8V per cell, 22.8V nominal, 26.1V full charge (4.35V/cell).

Before your first flight, confirm all three of the following:

1. ESC: Check your hexa’s ESC max input voltage. It must be rated for at least 26.1V. Most 6S industrial ESCs (T-Motor, EMAX, Holybro) are rated 25.2V–30V and will handle it. If your ESC is strictly “25.2V max,” do not connect this pack.

2. Charger: Your charger must have a 6S HV (or “6S 4.35V/cell”) profile. A standard 6S charger maxes out at 25.2V and will undercharge this pack — you’ll lose ~8% of rated capacity and the BMS may flag a low-voltage condition.

3. Failsafe / voltage monitoring: Set your flight controller’s battery voltage monitoring to 6S HV (min 3.40V/cell = 20.4V, nominal 22.8V, max 26.1V). If it’s set to standard 6S (nominal 22.2V), your telemetry will read incorrectly and your low-battery failsafe will trigger at the wrong point.

• Charger mode: 6S HV (4.35V/cell max, 26.1V total)
• Charge rate: 1C (23A) for daily field use; 2C (46A) maximum for mission turnaround
• Balance voltage: 4.35V/cell
• Discharge cutoff: 3.40V/cell minimum (20.4V total) — do not fly below this
• Storage voltage: 3.80V/cell (22.8V) if not flying for more than 48 hours

At 1C (23A), a full charge from empty takes approximately 55–65 minutes. At 2C (46A), approximately 30–35 minutes.

For a spraying operation with 2–3 battery swaps per sortie, 1C is the correct choice — it’s gentle on the cells and 55 min is acceptable turnaround. Avoid 3C+ (69A+) charging; it significantly reduces cycle life.

With 524.4Wh of energy and 575A continuous capability, here’s what to expect on a 12"–15" hexa:

MISSION TYPETYPICAL AUWESTIMATED ENDURANCEAgricultural spraying (10L tank)6–9kg35–50 minLarge-area mapping / photogrammetry4–7kg45–65 minPower line / pipeline inspection5–8kg40–55 minHeavy cargo (5kg+ payload)8–12kg25–40 min

These are estimates based on 12"–15" props at 60–80% cruise throttle in calm conditions. Headwind, high altitude, and aggressive throttle usage will reduce endurance. A 15" prop on a 120KV motor at 70% throttle is the most efficient configuration and will trend toward the upper end of each range.

Practical planning rule: use 70% of the estimated endurance as your mission planning limit, leaving a 20–30% safety margin for the return leg.

• 1× PCEONAMP 22.8V 23000mAh 6S HV LiPo battery (Model: XY230256B), AS150U plug pre-soldered
• 1× JST-XH 7-pin balance lead

About the AS150U connector:

• Gold-plated contacts, low contact resistance
• Anti-spark design (spring-loaded, no open-circuit arc on insertion)
• Signal pin (keying) — physically prevents reverse-polarity connection; you can’t plug it in backwards
• Rated for high-current industrial use (400A+)
• Standard on most large-format hexa/octo ESCs

If your hexa’s ESC uses a different connector (XT90S, Anderson SB, etc.):

1. Use an AS150U-to-X adapter (no soldering, plug-and-play)
2. Cut and re-solder — 8AWG leads support ~400A sustained

For a hexa doing 300A+ sustained draws, the AS150U is the correct choice over XT90S (rated ~150A) — it reduces connector heating and voltage drop.

Both packs fit the same class of large hexa, but they serve different mission profiles.

This pack (22.8V / 25C / 23000mAh) delivers 575A continuous. It’s the right choice when your hexa carries heavy payload — 10L+ spraying tank, 5kg+ cargo — and draws 300A+ sustained. The 25C rating keeps cells cool and voltage stable under that load, which matters most on hexas where all 6 motors are drawing simultaneously.

The Ultra-HV pack (23.1V / 10C / 32000mAh) delivers 320A continuous. It’s the right choice when your hexa is in the 4–7kg AUW range and you need maximum flight time. The extra 9000mAh gives roughly 45% more energy, and 320A is more than enough for that weight class. You trade peak power for endurance.

One practical difference: this pack charges to 26.1V (4.35V/cell), while the Ultra-HV pack charges to 27.3V (4.55V/cell). If you run both packs on the same hexa, you’ll need to switch your charger profile between them — a 26.1V charger will undercharge the Ultra-HV pack, and a 27.3V charger will overcharge this pack.

Simple rule: heavy load, high current → this 25C pack. Light load, long time → the 10C Ultra-HV pack.
