- Aerial Visions Inc, 4s 1300mAh 60C
When installing the selected battery, pay attention to the Center of Gravity mark on the bottom
of the Vortex. The COG is not that critical on a quad of this class, but it doesn’t hurt to respect it
if possible, especially when racing.
The addition of a heavy GoPro, on the nose of the quad may need a heavier battery to re-balance
the quad.
Note that the largest battery that can be installed safely on the Vortex is approx. 86mm long, by
50mm wide. These larger packs are not generally recommended, due to the damage that the
extra mass can do in a crash.
NOTE: Ensure that the battery is securely mounted on the anti-slip pad, with at least two
battery straps installed. The battery should not be able to move around in flight. Also make
sure the plastic liner on the anti-slip pad is removed!
ANOTHER NOTE: Ensure that your main battery cables, and also the balance leads are
secured in the straps, and cannot, under any circumstances, touch the props.
Sliced battery cables and/or balance leads are a cause of expensive shorts, fires, and
crashes!
