[NSRCA-discussion] 6S+4S-Good or Bad?

[Dave Burtion]

I have 10S, 8S, and 6S electric pattern style planes. I buy only 5S and 3S packs and can mix and match to fly all of them with the needed combinations. I do buy all the same C ratings and Mah capacity for these packs though. It's been working OK for 2-3 years for me.

  I think this would be my biggest concern, that while the packs might be labeled the same (same MAH and C rating) that the interncal cells might actually vary more between 4s and 6s configurations than they would with identical 5s pack. Different production runs, etc.

  Theoretically though there should be no difference.

  Yes, just like when using two 5S packs in series you must use the same capacity and "C" rating.

  Hey Bob

  There should be no difference in performance compared to 2 5S setup. Obviously, charging is different due to unequal cell counts in packs, but to the ESC, it looks like a 10S pack when you connect a 6S and a 4S in series.

  Wondering if anyone has run these instead of 10s, and were results different from 2x 5S setups?
