[chbot] LiPo 1200mAh 3.7V

[Henri Shustak]

Hi,

I am heavily into FPV as such, I may have some LiPo’s you can grab. They mostly have XT-60 connectors. But they can be easily changed to JST connectors if you have some of those on hand.

Are you after 1S,2S,3S,4S,6S etc? If you are after 6S (about 25V when fully charged), then I have some. If you are after 3S I may have some but maybe not sufficient mah rating (maybe you could link one or two in parallel?

Let me know more about what your after or email direct with a phone number and we can have a chat.

I did order some JST connectors a while back. However, I do not think they ever showed up :( Hopefully you have some.

Henri
