Parrot Ar.drone 2.0 Upgrade 1500mah Li-po Battery

Since the battery life of the one included with the droan sucks, this is a good backup. Uses the same charger and takes about an hour and a half for a full charge. Can't do without it. That's why I bought another one. It last for about 20 minutes.

This battery is truely great!!!I started with the stock battery...it was ok, about what i'd expect considering it what the battery is powering; live video feed, wi-fi signals, and constantly analyzing info from onboard sensors...but when this came a side by side comparison proved it to be quite an improvment. the uav can fly for a considerable longer time, and the battery seems to output more in some way and the chopper can accelerate faster and adjust easier...i don't know, maby just me but if you're even considering getting one, stop thinking about it and just do it. maby even get two. and if you're thinking the stock battery is enough...it pales in comparison to this one

I was initially a little nervous about purchasing an off-brand battery, but it really puts out power for almost twice as long as the Parrot batteries. I now use this as my primary battery and use the Parrot batteries as back ups.

This battery hardly lasted 13 minutes of easy use. The 1300 battery's that don't look near as pretty as this one are lasting at least 15 minutes. I expected at least 18 to 20 minutes it didn't even come close. This is almost the same as the original battery only bigger and heavier. Which might account for the low flight time. I could almost live with that if it hadn't dropped from 45% to low battery in a matter of seconds. The landing was terrible it was almost like it didn't have enough power left to make a safe landing. fortunately it landed in my soft grass so there was no damage but it flipped upside down about 2 feet off the ground. I have never had one do that before. I'm going to return this because it is either defective or a flat out lie about what it is.

Well, according to the onboard flight timer I have gotten a total of 47 cumulative minutes usage out of this battery. I estimate that about 15-20 of that was spent on the ground.Problem #1 is it can't handle the current draw.At first I was blaming the sudden cut-off crashes on 3rd party software but the last 4 times it was official parrot software both on 2 android devices and 1 iPhone. Not the software. After about 6 minutes (5:51, 5:42 6:02 were my last 3 flights, oddly consistent failure - those were off a single charge BTW, voltages tested fine in between. I then installed an onboard alarm and cell 1 failed.)The drone just suddenly loses power and drops to the ground then reboots. (Notice my recent order of pinions/props/gears) I also lose the in-flight video as a result. Every time. If I leave it sitting on the ground it's fine, just can't handle the current draw when flying. Overheats.As far as I can deduce the problem is cell #1 - which brings us to problem #2. It also doesn't hold a charge. I tested it with multiple meters/alarms and in about 28 hours (sitting on a shelf @75°) it dropped from 4.19 to 1.87v - way below the emergency cutoff level, and in fact so low that I couldn't even recharge it with the original parrot charger. The other 2 cells at this point were @ 3.86 and 4.01 respectively.Tested the drone with another battery and flew great for 11:53 (stock parrot battery, outdoor hull, mild crosswind at about 5-7mph in gusts, old but good OEM battery) I am going to order a different battery and hopefully this bad one can run a 12v wifi router (part of my next stage of upgrades on this drone) but after 2 sets of props plus pinions, snapped circlips, new gears etc... This battery has cost me a lot and at least in my opinion wasn't with the cost. (so far it's cost me almost $100 and I still don't have a battery to fly my drone.)At least based on my experience I cannot recommend this battery at the moment. Maybe I just have bad luck but it's been a very expensive journey to a point where I still can't fly my drone and am back to square 1 looking for a new battery :-/BTW the charge and storage environment are both temperature controlled between 75-78°F and I did allow the battery to drain as far as the drone would take it the waited a while for it to fully cool before charging it. I work with a lot of li-ion batteries and recently LiPo and LiPoFe batteries)

The battery arrived DOA. I filled out the return form and discovered that the cost of the return to China was more than what I paid for the battery. I wrote to Super King and the promptly sent me an email stating that there was no need to return the and that they would issue a full refund.Now that is outstanding service. Despite the DOA battery (which I suspect was an exception), I will certainly try ordering from Super King again.

This fit my parrot AR drone 2.0 and lasts just as long as the original 1500 mah battery. so far so good, 20 flights in and the battery has showing no signs of wear!

It took a long time to ship but once i got it, i charged it up and it fits the charger and drone fine. It extended my flying time a few minutes.
