Drone Battery Cost Optimization for Delivery Drones (8)
When operators ask me how to lower the cost of a drone battery program, the instinct is almost always to negotiate the cell price down. After fifteen years…
Drone Battery Reliability for Mapping UAVs: A Weibull-Based
I have spent eleven years designing, qualifying and post-morteming lithium packs for unmanned aircraft, and the fleets that keep me up at night are not the…
Drone Battery Performance for Racing Drones: Engineering (2)
As a senior lithium battery engineer at Horizon Power, I have spent the last eleven years on the test bench with one of the harshest power profiles in the…
Drone Battery Testing for Racing Drones: A Senior (2)
Over the last nine years I have shipped thousands of high-discharge cells to FPV and professional racing teams, and the single habit that separates a podiu…

Why a Bench Spec Sheet Never Tells the Whole Race-Day Story
After fifteen years on the lithium battery bench, the single habit that has saved me the most r…
Drone Battery Testing for Racing Drones: A Senior
Racing drones are unforgiving machines. A freestyle quadcopter can pull 100-150 A from a single 6S pack in a hard punch-out, and a closed-course racer sees…
Drone Battery Design for Inspection UAVs: Engineering the
When most people think about a drone battery, they picture the thing that spins the rotors. For inspection UAVs, that mental model is dangerously incomplet…
