Default small lipos?

Hi all just had my first night flight .wow it was very cool . I don’t know why I didn’t try it a long time ago ?
I just have one question where can I get a small lipo for my leds and what would be a good size?
I just ran with a big pack and it did not work well. THANKS……

what size heli and where are the LED's, what brand of lighting system? - blades, canopy, etc.

If you are making blades see the DIY thread for the 1S Lipo's.

If you are neededing one for Lights on the heli itselft just use any that the manufacture recommends. most LED system like xerogear run 2S or 3S packs.

I run just a Gaui 800MAH 3S pack for my lights (now have installed 2 of them but I have 17 feet of LED's on my heli)

last time I was out I actually had orientation issues I think adding another 2 feet of amber to the tail just put it over the top, the tail was so bright I'm starting to think it bacame my focal point instead of the canopy/skids. I could tell which direction it was going but not 100% a few times I caught myself flying diagnal instead of straight.

ahahah but yes brightness isn't an issue at about 10 feet the ground is fully illuminated.
