Admiral 5000mAh 6S 22.2V 50C LiPo Battery with EC5 Connector Reviews

4.8 Rating 385 Reviews
This is my third Admiral 6s 5000mAh 50C battery and it is just as good as the first two. It has low internal resistance (approx 2mohm per cell at room temperature, and quite a bit lower after flying in my Stinger 90mm) and none of my batteries have puffed yet. I run them hard in my Stinger and put a continuous ~20C load on them for the whole flight. They do come down quite warm, but flying full throttle at 100+ amps for the entire flight in 80-100 degree weather is really pushing these bad boys. Due to the stress I put on these batteries, I'm not sure how many cycles I'll get out of them, but I've got 40+ cycles on the first two I bought and they are no worse for the wear. If I need more, I won't hesitate to pick up some more. And additionally, MotionRC is my favorite RC company to buy from.

I bot 4 of these batteries to fly a 35 lb plane that pulled 150 amps. the best I could get after one year was about 12.5 C. I only flew about 6 times - About 100.00 per flight. Save your money.

While it IS possible to plug this battery into a parallel charging board, the balance wire length is too short. Had to use an extension wire, but you shouldn't need to use one.

Holds up very well. Returns to 4.2v per cell every time.

I prefer the Admiral lipos for both the best price and best performance in my models.

I have only had a few cycles on this battery, but it seemsto have a good voltage balance between the cells. The power delivery is very good, and the so is the workmanship I like the fact the battery came with a EC5 connector already installed. If this battery is anything like my otherAdmiral batteries, I should not have an problems with thebattery puffing up, like other brands I have used.

New to extend the balance cable. Can't fit 4 packs on board to charge.

Excellent battery, more that half the price of a Horizon Eflite 50c 5000 6c battery. Use this in my Habu 32X. Horizon cost $239, Admiral price $109. Great price Great Battery.Thanks,
