Key Features

• 3S1P Configuration (11.1V) — Three lithium polymer cells in series provide 11.1 volts nominal output, ideal for small brushless motors and flight controllers used in ultralight RC aircraft, ensuring optimal voltage compatibility with most small plane electronics.
• 1000mAh Capacity — A carefully balanced capacity provides sufficient energy for extended flight sessions while maintaining the lightweight characteristics essential for small 800mm class aircraft, allowing you to enjoy longer missions without excessive weight penalties.
• 30C Discharge Rate — The 30C continuous discharge rating ensures robust power delivery even during demanding flight manoeuvres, giving you consistent throttle response and reliable performance throughout your flight envelope.
• XT60 Connector — Industry-standard XT60 connector provides secure, reliable power connections with low resistance, ensuring minimal voltage drop and maximum efficiency in transferring power from battery to your aircraft electronics.
• Ultra-Lightweight Construction — At approximately 89-92 grams, this battery is engineered to minimise weight while maintaining structural integrity, a critical advantage when every gram affects climb performance and glide characteristics in small aircraft.
• Low Internal Resistance (IR) — The specialised cell chemistry and construction provide low internal resistance, which means stable voltage output is maintained until the end of your flight mission, preventing voltage sag during high-demand manoeuvres.
• Soft Case Design — The flexible soft case packaging protects the cells whilst keeping overall weight minimal, making this battery perfect for modellers who prioritise performance without unnecessary bulk.
• Premium Build Quality — Manufactured to Gens Ace's exacting standards, every battery undergoes rigorous quality control ensuring consistency, reliability and safety in every pack, backed by a full one-year manufacturer warranty.
• Stable Simultaneous Discharge Technology — Gens Ace's proprietary technology allows the battery to deliver stable, balanced discharge across all cells simultaneously, ensuring predictable voltage characteristics and maximising flight performance throughout the discharge cycle.

Technical Performance

The Gens Ace G-Tech Soaring battery represents sophisticated engineering tailored specifically for the unique demands of small RC aircraft. With its 1000mAh capacity and 30C discharge rating, this 3S1P pack delivers approximately 30 amps of continuous discharge current, making it perfectly suited for brushless motors commonly found in 800mm class RC planes. The 11.1V nominal voltage (with fully charged voltage reaching approximately 12.6V) provides optimal operating range for modern RC flight controllers and motor combinations whilst maintaining compatibility with standard charging infrastructure. The battery's dimensions of 71.5mm length, 30-35mm width and 17-20mm height create an exceptionally compact form factor that fits easily into tight fuselage spaces without requiring major airframe modifications. The charging specification of 1-3C means you can charge this battery from completely depleted to fully charged in roughly 20-60 minutes depending on your charger selection, allowing quick turnarounds between flights. The low internal resistance design ensures stable voltage delivery — a critical factor in maintaining consistent climb performance and preventing the voltage sag that can compromise flight characteristics in demanding manoeuvres. The battery's energy density is optimised specifically for RC aircraft applications rather than general-purpose use, meaning every milliwatt-hour is tailored for flight performance. Construction utilises high-quality lithium polymer cells encased in protective soft packaging, balancing safety with the weight consciousness that defines small RC aircraft design. ISO9001 and ISO14001 certifications confirm that manufacturing occurs under rigorous quality and environmental standards, providing confidence that your battery is produced consistently and responsibly. Whether you're a casual RC plane flyer or a competitive soaring pilot in the UK RC scene, this battery delivers the engineering quality and performance characteristics needed for reliable, enjoyable flights.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the Gens Ace G-Tech Soaring battery suitable for beginner RC plane pilots? — Yes, absolutely. This battery is designed specifically for small 800mm class aircraft that are typically entry-level models. The 30C discharge rate is more than adequate for gentle flying, and the robust Gens Ace construction means the battery is reliable and forgiving of typical beginner charging practices. The lightweight nature actually makes aircraft more responsive and easier to control for pilots still developing their skills.
• What aircraft weight range is this battery designed for? — The Gens Ace G-Tech Soaring 1000mAh pack is specified for small aircraft in the 800mm wingspan class. These are typically ultralight foam or EPO models weighing between 100-400 grams all-up weight. The 89-92 gram battery weight represents roughly 20-40% of total aircraft weight depending on your specific model, which is a typical and well-balanced ratio for small RC planes.
• How long will this battery last per flight? — Flight duration depends on aircraft weight, throttle management and flying style, but typical users can expect 8-15 minutes of continuous powered flight, or considerably longer if you're soaring and using throttle sparingly. The 1000mAh capacity at 30C discharge means you have approximately 30 amps of available current, providing flexibility in motor selection and flight intensity.
• Can I use this battery in an RC car or boat instead of aircraft? — Whilst the 11.1V 3S voltage is compatible with many RC cars and boats, this battery has been specifically optimised for aircraft applications with its low weight priority and soft case design. For dedicated RC car or boat use in the UK, you'd benefit from a battery designed specifically for ground or water vehicles, which typically use harder cases and different cell chemistries optimised for those applications.
• What is the difference between the G-Tech version and the older Gens Ace Soaring model? — The G-Tech represents Gens Ace's latest generation technology with improved energy density, enhanced low internal resistance characteristics and updated manufacturing processes. The previous generation (model GEA10003S30X6) offered solid performance but the G-Tech incorporates Gens Ace's latest innovations in lithium polymer battery chemistry and construction, providing measurably better voltage stability and reliability.
• How should I store this battery when not in use? — LiPo batteries should be stored in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight at around 50% state of charge if you won't be using them for extended periods. Many UK modellers keep LiPo batteries in specialist storage bags or metal containers, as this protects both the battery and provides a degree of fire containment in the extremely unlikely event of cell failure. Store away from metal objects and never store whilst fully charged for extended periods.
• What charger do I need for this battery? — You need a dedicated LiPo charger capable of balance charging 3S lithium polymer batteries at 1-3C charge rates. Most modern chargers sold in the UK market support this specification. The 1-3C charge rate means you can charge between 1 amp (slowest, 60 minutes) and 3 amps (fastest, 20 minutes) depending on your charger capabilities. Never use car battery chargers or non-LiPo chargers as these can damage the battery and create safety hazards.
• Is this battery compatible with my brushless RC aircraft? — The 11.1V output is compatible with the vast majority of brushless flight controllers and motors designed for small aircraft. The XT60 connector is industry standard and connects easily to most modern aircraft systems. Before purchasing, verify that your aircraft's flight controller accepts 3S lithium polymer input and that your motor's voltage specification includes 11.1V operation.
