Finally finished and fitted the 3S 1P Li-ion pack to the Flysky GT3b.

This does away with8x AA rechargeable cells (could only charge 4 at a time) and replaces with a 3x 18650 pack 12v 3000mah, just a modern take on the lipo mod, but advantage you charge the pack and leave it charged as Li-ion is happy at full charge unlike the Lipo battery

Not got a link as its a home made battery using 3x 18650 vape batteries, also cant say for sure if it would fit in GT5, does that have a lipo as stock? here is a video showing how to make and wire up a pack you need a 3S balance wire and a very good soldering iron to get solder on the battery terminalsย  ย **Just had a look at the GT5 and it takes 2S lipo or 4 AA.......you could make a 2S 1P 3000mah Li-Ion, for just about ยฃ13 and remove the AA battery holder
