Custom Battery Packs for Drones and RC Models
A drone or RC battery must deliver high current in short bursts at low weight. Jetray builds custom LiPo and Li-ion packs for drone, FPV and RC model brands, to your cell count, connector and shape.
What decides the pack
- 01Cell count (S). 2S, 3S, 4S, 6S and higher set the voltage.
- 02Capacity (mAh). Sets flight time and weight.
- 03Discharge rate (C). Sets how much current the pack gives. A pack sized to the average current alone will sag in a climb.
- 04Weight. Every gram costs flight time.
- 05Connector. Power plug and balance plug must match your speed controller and charger.
LiPo or Li-ion
Brands we can offer include Panasonic, Samsung, LG, Molicel and EVE for cylindrical cells. Send your peak current and weight limit, and we check the cell and layout. Cell selection
What we can set
- Voltage and layout cell count and series-parallel layout.
- Connectors and leads power and balance connectors, wire gauge and length.
- Shape a tray fit, a flat brick or a custom pack to fit the airframe.
- Protection and balancing a protection board where the design allows it, and balance leads for chargers. BMS design
- Smart data CAN, UART and Bluetooth can be set up to your requirement for packs that report state to the aircraft.
- Charger a matching charger.
- Brand your label and packaging. OEM, ODM and private label
Shipping and documents
Lithium batteries for drones are shipped under transport rules, and air freight is strict. UN38.3, IEC 62133 and MSDS documents are available, with transport and certification reports for the shipment. Tell us your markets, such as the US, EU or UK, and the shipping mode. Quality and certification
Order and delivery
Custom battery pack samples are charged, and you fly them before the batch. Custom packs usually take one to two months. MOQ depends on the product. We supply distributors. Prototyping and samples Cost and MOQ

Frequently asked questions
It is the discharge rate relative to capacity. A higher C rating means the pack can give more current. Always ask for the continuous and burst ratings and how they were tested.
LiPo for high current and low weight. Li-ion for long range. Your peak current and weight limit decide.
Yes. Send the plug type and polarity.
Yes. Send the drawing or photos.
We work with drone and RC brands, makers and distributors. Send your target models and quantities.
Yes. Private label is supported.
