Hey everyone, just a question on which batteries to buy really. Is there a certain brand of battery that people favour for racing quads than the rest?

I have a black widow 260 quad and it came with a 1300mah 3s battery, I need to buy some spares so would like to get the best quality I can. Rather than buy some without asking and find out they are pants.

Any recommendations on good batteries will be appreciated, thankyou

Firstly, with a quad that size I'd highly recommend a 4S battery. Not just for the extra speed and power, but for the ability to recover more quickly from manoeuvres. As for choice, it's like asking what's better, a Ford or a Chevy? My battery of choice is the Tattu R-Line and for your quad I'd suggest a 1300 or 1550 95C

Ahh right, that's helped me out a bit. So is there much difference in size between what I have now and one of those? I'll definitely be getting one if it's a viable option

The battery dimensions are contained in the product description. But yes, they'll fit your quad nicely and you may get an extra minute or 2 with the 1550 mah

Depending on where you're located and who you're ordering from, you may want to contact the vendor and enquire as to their shipping policy regarding lipos.
