- MVC Battery Essential

Designed around a 2S LiPo configuration, the battery provides a rated voltage of 7.7 V and a capacity of up to 2250 mAh. Its charging-voltage limit is 8.5 V, while the charging-temperature range extends from 5°C to 40°C. These characteristics suit endurance-focused aerial platforms where stable output, low weight and reliability are essential.

A Samtec UMPS-06-05.5-L-V-S-W-TR connector provides a secure electrical interface and maintains connectivity during vibration-intensive drone operations. The battery weighs 82g and measures 42 × 76 mm, enabling installation and balanced weight distribution on compact aircraft.

Battery functions are managed by a GigaDevice GD32E230F8V6TR microcontroller featuring a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M23 core operating at 72MHz. This processor supports accurate monitoring, control and efficient communication with the aircraft’s systems.

The Texas Instruments BQ40Z50 battery-management controller provides cell balancing, diagnostics and charge-discharge supervision. Integrated protection covers overcharging, overcurrent, excessive temperature and short circuits. One PTC thermistor on the board and one NTC thermistor per cell continuously monitor thermal conditions, enhancing cell safety and supporting temperature regulation.

Real-time battery data can be transmitted to the autopilot, allowing operators and systems to monitor power status during flight. Five LEDs display battery level in 10% increments, with blinking indications providing status information. A multifunction button supports short- and long-press commands for power control and battery-level display.
