❓ What are C-ratings in drone batteries and why are they important?

C-rating indicates a battery's maximum safe continuous discharge rate. The formula is:

Maximum Current = Capacity (Ah) × C-rating

For example, a 2000mAh (2Ah) battery with 50C rating can safely deliver up to 100A continuous current (2 × 50 = 100). Higher C-ratings are essential for:

• Aggressive flying styles
• Larger propellers
• More powerful motors
• Better acceleration

Most photography drones use batteries with 15-25C ratings, while racing drones often require 75C or higher. Always choose a C-rating that matches your drone's power requirements to prevent battery damage and ensure optimal performance.
