I have a quadcopter, It sounds good. But the problem is battery, its only 100Mah.
I just wanted to know if i can replace it with my custom battery which is originally for samsung Galaxy Mini GT-S5570I.
Its same as copters power (3.7 V). But i'm thinking to use it here, because its 1200 Mah.
Its good enough for this quadcopter. But i'm also curious to know whether Li-ion And Li-Po is same.
So the question is can i use my mob's battery in quadcopter.

100mah and 1200mah both are 3.7v, lipo are specialy ment for rc they have very high discharge rate while lion have low discharge rate with higher capacity. You can connect your phone battery to quad there will be no issue of burn and short circuit. Just try it and let us know what happene.
But i am concerned about the 1200mah weight , is your quad capable to lift it as earlier it was lifting 100mah battery. It is kind a experimental, try it and tell us the result what happens. This may help many of us.
But never try to connect lipo batteris to phone otherwise you may damage your phone.

Sir, first you have to consider the discharge rate of your battery. if didn't find a useful answer here , just go ahead and test it and post the video here. :hatsoff: ;D
