Best Battery Mod for DJI Inspire 1 , My Opinion

to answer all questions so far

1. i have to make 2 xt60 extension, custom to my length to connect 2 batteries

2. the I1 and I1 pro are the same birds, Pro has less run time because of props and weight of X5, thats why sold with tb48's , as for fitmet, i will be giving out the .stl file for free for a bit, then for sale on my site, so people can use 3dhubs or other print shops, i just dont have alot of time to print all thats wanted, BUT if you send me measurement between sonar and x5 bracket, caz thats where mine goes to get better CG of the craft, other brands put to much weight on the back, and the I1 with x3 is already rear heavy, DJI adjust the PIDS accordingly , i can just do new design for X5

ADDENDUM : it wont fit X5, Because they use the same mounting holes as my mount

3. TIME, i just got 18650 titan setup just the other day, and im still need strong velcro for titan battery, so i have yet not tested, but other setups have gotten extra 5-6 minute, talking with titan , i hope to beat that, so maybe after easter i will be testing 2 new tb47's one with and one without mod, and i will post soon
 
i was working on a backpac mod, and i stopped, but maybe work with X5, i will revisit the idea

well im not up to 289 yet, and thats without lipos and mount, and cables. it says on website 25 -30 minute
tb47 with x3 gets 16 min add untested 6 min thats 22??, and like i said, hope to test Monday if weather holds, i might beat that, but i have to check all weight and balances...... oh im sorry, the combo is
Mod Combo Black
DJI Inspire Battery Mod TB48 Black = 545.00

Mine
xt60 = 1.00
copper strips misc. solder = 5.00

2 titan 3.5AH 22.2V 120W ENDURANCE 48.00 each = 96
1 1S2P WIRING HARNESS = 4.50
my designed battery mount with Mid Mount CG not adding weigt to the back = 15.00 abs
ill give you 20.00 electricity
oh 2 wire ties = 1.00

grand total off 142.50
so thats a savings of 402.50
wow i can buy more TITAN 18650 style endurance batteries, maybe the
7.0AH 22.2V 240W ENDURACE BRICK thats another 1400 mah 89 each + 142.50 = 320.50


so sorry if it got 1 more minute ITS Worth it!

but i would like to try 25 minute i would be happy

but i will see ASAP!!!

I have these same batteries from Titan. I think my connector is a parallel connector though. These batteries however will not work for me. The reverse seems to be true as I get less flight time,only get about 6min total flight time. Is it because the batteries must be in series? I noticed that your connector has two leads on it whereas mine only has one lead. If this is my problem where did you find a connector that runs your battery in series as opposed to parallel? Thanks for any assistance you can provide. I'm so glad you posted this discussion.
 
very sorry i said serial again......losing my mind, its a parallel y harness, came from titan Put two Titan packs in parallel and double your mAh! - Black XT60 Connectors - 14AWG multistrand silicon wire (10cm long) https://www.gettitanpower.com/pages/1s2p-wiring-harness
