CNHL Black Series 1300mAh 6S specs for 5" freestyle
22.2V, 230g, XT60, 100C/200C, 76×47×35mm. Why this CNHL 6S 1300mAh pack keeps leaving the TechHobby cart, and which 4S or 2S pack to buy instead.
Ask a Jaipur freestyle pilot which pack they buy again, and the answer is often a 6S 1300mAh. On TechHobby that pack is the CNHL Black Series 1300mAh 6S 100C (₹2,199). It is light enough for a 5" quad and common enough that a dead pack is easy to replace with the same plug and tray size.
Listed specifications
- Nominal voltage 22.2V, 6 cells
- Capacity 1300mAh
- Discharge 100C continuous / 200C burst (maker’s label, not a bench certificate)
- Max charge rate 5C
- Size 76×47×35mm, weight about 230g
- Discharge lead XT60, 90mm; balance lead JST-XH, 45mm
Measure the battery tray. A 230g 6S 1300 sits in most 5" freestyle frames; a 1500–1800mAh pack is longer and heavier.
What to pair it with
A 5" freestyle quad on 6S — motors in the 2207 or 2306 class such as the HGLRC Specter 2306.5 1900KV, and props such as the Gemfan WinDancer 5043. Pilots buy this series for punch and a known size, then judge voltage sag on their own quad.
When to pick a different pack
- 4S quads need 14.8V. Use the CNHL Black Series 1300mAh 4S (₹1,599), not this 6S pack.
- Whoops and 2S toothpicks want XT30. Example: CNHL MiniStar 650mAh 2S (₹649).
- Long-range wings want more capacity and a different airframe. That budget sits outside a 5" freestyle list — see what a custom 5" actually costs.
Shipping and care
The product page is clear: battery shipments go by surface even if you chose express. If the frame, motors, and props should not wait, put the LiPos on a separate order. Store near storage voltage, do not charge unattended, and retire any pack that is puffed or was crashed hard. Chargers: battery chargers. Full shelf: LiPo batteries.
The radio does not care which pack you fly. If you are still choosing a transmitter, read Boxer vs GX12 before you bind.
Frequently asked questions
Is 1300mAh 6S enough for a 5" freestyle quad?
Yes for most freestyle packs. Heavier 1500–1800mAh 6S packs fly longer and feel less agile. This 1300mAh pack is the size TechHobby customers reorder.
What are the listed dimensions and weight?
76×47×35mm and about 230g, with a 90mm XT60 lead and a 45mm JST-XH balance lead. Measure the frame tray before you assume a fit.
Why did my battery ship slower than the rest of the order?
The CNHL listing states battery shipments go by surface even if express was selected. Put batteries on their own order if the other parts should move faster.
Can I use this 6S pack on a 4S quad?
No. It is a 22.2V 6S pack. A 4S build needs a 14.8V pack such as the CNHL Black Series 1300mAh 4S.
What charge rate does the listing allow?
The product page lists a 5C maximum charge rate. Use a balance charger, store near storage voltage, and retire a puffed or crash-crushed pack.
