Bored at my V911. Need a bigger boy. Can I change the batteries on V913 as easily as the V911? I hate the down time while charging the battery

NO and if you don't let the motors cool on the v913 you will burn the motors slap up!

Never had a 911, but do own a 913. Just a snap to change the battery. There is a battery strap with 2 screws that I no longer use since canopy alone secures the battery safe enough for me. The V913 is a good bird. After you get a few hours flying time in, move the servo linkages to the last hole in the servo arms. Dramatically improves the performance. For spare parts I recommend techNtoys at Amazon. Good luck!

The whole reason I bought 2 helo's is because of your issue. I don't like waiting either, you can have 4 of these bad boys cheaper than what some RC's cost. I got this one and a MJX F45. The two together give you plenty of flying time...but me, I had to go one up and bought the V912 to throw in the mix. When i get done with all 3, I come back inside and run my 4 "mini" helo's. 1 Nine Eagle and 3 V911's. About an 1 and half hours or 2....depending. Plenty of fly time...and I'm still WAY under the price of an Align T-Rex.

short answer no it is under the front canopy held down by a strap screwed to the frame I have tried back to back flights with second battery and had problems the motors get extremely hot!! I have had to replace the tail rotor motor and the plastic connector for the main motor on the radio board melted I have given up back to back flights as a side note the batteries take a good hour to charge after they cool down still the 913 is an order of magnitude more fun to fly than the 911 very fast flight quick turns it is an outdoor machine to big and fast for indoor it will handle a light breeze great fun short answer no it is under the front canopy held down by a strap screwed to the frame I have tried back to back flights with second battery and had problems the motors get extremely hot!!

Yes, with a little bit of modification. I removed the screws and plastic strap over the battery of the v913, and placed Velcro on the battery as well as the base of the copter where the battery goes. That way you can pull them in and out when you remove the canopy. Only problem is, the stock motors of the v913 run very hot, so I wouldn't recommend running 2 batteries back to back. Motor WILL burn out.

I have three 911's I fly in doors to keep my skill set up. I take three 912's and three 913's to the field on dead calm days. Don't get into changing the batteries, by more birds. They are dirt cheap for the technology your getting.

Hi Gregory! I just asked the question of the best "proven" way to charge these batts and I'm convinced by the majority of answers is to use the USB end and keep the mAh's the same 1 thru 5, of course. It will take longer, but successful all around, as many have said and I tend to agree. Some have used, me included, a 3.7V wall charger, but I don't feel any longer. I hope that this helps and puts your mind at ease as it does mine!&#128522;

For me it was a direct replacement for my UB12120, same size all around. So YES you will have a higher amp hour battery, and will see less of a load on a bigger battery, which will make the battery last longer for it's lifetime, and between charges. The thing that kills these batteries is being left in an uncharged state. Always charge ASAP after use, do not wait until it is empty. The battery voltage should never go below 11.5 volts at rest (for longest life).

I owned v911 and the old battery works in my h911.. I just orders the upgraded v911 batteries for my h911

About a year, I think. You need a good lipo charger so you can balance the battery and store properly. It may still be good and just needs a good balance charge. I ran into the same problem with a v912 and the charger brought it back. It is always a good ideal to have a spare battery. Hope this helps.

I have two v911's (and about 12 batteries from the stock ones to 200mAh), but I normally use their USB charger to charge the batteries. Looking at the outputs on the Tenergy main unit, as well as the charge cable array and the separate multi-adapter board... I don't see any outputs for that size connector anywhere -- so I would say no. -If- you can find a way to adapt the charging receptacle for the v911 to the Tenergy charger, I am confident you could dial in the right voltage/capacity to charge them. As it is, stock, there is nothing to hook them up to.

I'm not aware of any upgrades to the battery, and I'm not sure that would work -- the larger batteries are definitely larger. If you want a 222Wh battery, buy it -- just be aware of its size and weight. While I would love to have that much power storage, I opted for the smaller 100Wh model because it fit better into my computer bag. As for the battery, I love it. It more than doubles my runtime on a 17" macbook pro, enabling me to get a full day away from an outlet while running Windows 7 (running OS X gets another hour or two of runtime over Windows).

Yes same remotes on both and they will also control the V911's also. if you hunt around there is also a hidden turbo mode on the remote and a mod to put a toggle switch in so it will work all the time, not short burst

I have a factory slow charger and a quick charger with 5 batteries. So swapping out batteries is no issue with my small yard. But if you have no tools already using the 18V B&D;, best go with a newer model with better battery life.

I believe this is the "new" battery connection. My blue one like this flies and hovers in a very stable manner. I have 4 V911s and the blue is my favorite.

I i am out of town so can't grab my battery but yes they are physically larger then a standard 9v. A standard 9v slips in and out of my paintball gun with easy but with these batteries it grabs hard enough with these batteries to require me to use a flat head screw driver to pull it out enough for me to grab it firmly enough to pull it out.

I have had mine for several months, but don't know how long it has been on the market. I have flown my v913 several times without any issue. However, when I ordered it I also ordered an extra battery. I put it away for several weeks and when I decided to use it ,it was all swollen and would not work. I buy most of my stuff from Banggood. It was so long before I noticed the battery was bad that I did not try for a refund. However, Bangggood is very good about any problems that I have.

Yes, you can. Though if you google the subject, you will find that some users report it does not boost the battery on the v3 as well as it did on the v2. Perhaps the battery does not have as much capacity as the newer one?The advantage that I find is, the battery can come out of the bacpac. With the v3 its all one unit. You can get some of the Wasabi batteries here on amazon for a great price and they get very good reviews. Then you can have multiple batteries and use the bacpac as a standalone charger. This way you can be recharging one battery while using another.

Without a doubt it its for the G560. You're talking 3/10th of a volt. Lots of G560 batteries went bad, I thing Lenovo should've gone with the 11.1 volt one to start with. You should still contact Anker but I do have a couple degrees and I am using the battery myself. You might want to let the new one not charge to 100% 90% will make the service life much longer. The settings are in the advanced power settings.

the original adapter works for me. so it is able to charge this battery upto 100%, but the battery does not last more than 3 hours (almost like the original battery with 6 cells, with the 9 cells i was expecting longer charge time, now i wonder if it was due to the need for a new adaptor? or just that the battery was not of high quality, i'll need to cross check the voltage and amperage numbers before spending more on this)

Hey Jason, what type of RC toy do you have? I got this set of charger & 2 batteries & hooked it up to my 9.6v speedboat. I believe most 9.6 volt RC toys use this same connector. If I knew your toy it might help. Does your current battery look like the ones in this ad? Since I don't know what toy you have one idea is to call a hobby store that sells RC toys. Or if you're close to one you could bring in your toy or battery & they could tell you. If all else fails you could always but male & female connectors, remove your old ones and put on the new ones. It's a simple process and you can get the connectors at any electronics parts store. Good luck! Hey Jason, what type of RC toy do you have?
