Sweet! Nice Job!

I made one out of .028 Kydex (1/16 inch). Kydex is a plastic material that is easily molded with a heat gun. The thinner .028 can be molded with a hair dryer. Make a cardboard pattern first, then heat and bend the Kydex into shape. Works great. One side of the Kydex has a shine, the other side...

Hello eckydrone200, You need the CHA076003 Charger. It is the 13.05 V, 3.3 A charger. It ships with the Bebop 2 Power and recently with the Bebop 2 FPV.

Welcome from Texas!

Thanks everyone for your input and advice. I am using the LiHV (power) batteries in the Bebop 2 with no problems so far. I also constructed a balanced charge cable and am able to charge them with a balanced charger. The charger provided by Parrot IS NOT a balanced charger. You will get better...

Hello Paul, Your mod is lookin' good! I suspect you should get 8+ hours of flying before you need to recharge the batteries. Nice job. I emailed Christopher a couple of days ago with a question regarding the battery telemetry. He told me that the battery usage IS displayed in FreeFlightPro...

Thanks IronMan, I've been on his blog and we have exchanged emails in the past. You are right, he has a lot of good mod's and good ideas. I'll give him a shout.

Does anyone know what battery connector is used to connect the internal cylindrical battery to the Skycontroller 2P? This is the upgraded Skycontroller 2P with the black stick controls. It ships with the Bebop 2 Power and recently with the Bebop 2 FPV. I need to purchase some. Thanks.

It's now offered for free.

The Bebop 2 power battery is 11.4 V . "Bebop2 Power" will be printed on the battery.

The LiHV is the Bebop 2 Power Battery. Parrot has been shipping the Bebop 2 FPV with the LiHV batteries and the power charger. The LiHV is the battery for the drone not the Skycontroller. It is correct that you can charge the LiHV batteries with a standard LiPo charger but they will not charge...

Thanks for the post. Some of the newer Imax B6 chargers have been upgraded to support charging the LiHV batteries. Mine is one of the earlier ones without the LiHV charging upgrade. It'll work, but like you said, it will not fully charge the batteries.

Thanks, mine is the copy to but I have had no problems using it with other LiPo batteries. Using a balance charger will extend the life of the battery. Not sure though how it will work on LiHV batteries. I know it will not charge them to a full charge but don't see it damaging them. I am going...

Thanks for the post. Do you use the Imax B6 Charger on the standard Parrot LiPo battery or the Parrot LiHV? I constructed the charging cable and plan to use it on the Parrot LiHV battery. I have used the Imax B6 charger on other batteries with good results but not on the Parrot LiPo or LiHV. I...

I did more research and answered my own questions. The CHA076001 Charger is the standard Bebop 2 charger and the CHA076003 is the Bebop 2 Power Charger. My Bebop 2 FPV shipped with the Power Charger and the LiHV upgraded battery. Makes the deal even better when you get the upgrade for free.
