Key Features

• Universal G-Tech Balance Connector with ID Chip — The batteries are equipped with a revolutionary universal G-Tech balance connector featuring a built-in ID chip that stores battery chemistry, capacity, voltage specifications and recommended charging parameters. The connector retains the standard JST male balance connector format whilst adding an intelligent side pin, which streamlines charging processes and enhances compatibility across a wide range of G-Tech supported chargers and devices, eliminating confusion about which settings to use.
• Auto Charge Technology with Plug-and-Play Operation — When paired with a G-Tech supported charger, the Auto Charge Technology eliminates the need for manual programming entirely. Simply plug in your G-Tech battery, and the system automatically detects all necessary parameters and sets optimal charging rates, making the charging process as simple as possible for RC enthusiasts of all experience levels.
• Advanced Safety Measures and User Error Prevention — Gens Ace prioritises your safety through intelligent protection systems. The ID chip automatically detects essential battery data and recommended charging parameters, which are communicated to G-Tech supported chargers to prevent user errors and ensure a completely secure charging experience with no risk of incorrect settings causing damage.
• Universal Compatibility with Standard Chargers — Whilst optimised for G-Tech supported chargers, this battery remains universally compatible with all general LiPo chargers currently available on the market. You can charge it with any standard charger if you prefer, though manual programming will be required, similar to traditional LiPo batteries, giving you complete flexibility regardless of which charger you own.
• Electronics-Free Simplified Design — The G-Tech Smart Charging Solution is crafted without complex circuits or unnecessary electronics, ensuring minimal parasitic battery drain. This streamlined design prioritises efficiency and preserves your battery's power for when you need it most, rather than losing charge through complicated onboard systems.
• 2S 7.4V 30C LiPo Configuration — The 2-series configuration with 30C continuous discharge capability provides excellent power-to-weight ratio, making this battery perfect for RC aeroplanes, gliders, lightweight RC cars, boats and any RC model requiring responsive performance without excessive mass.
• XT60 Discharge Connector — The industry-standard XT60 connector provides secure, reliable power delivery with excellent contact integrity and minimal voltage drop, ensuring consistent performance throughout your RC flights or driving sessions.

Technical Performance

The Gens Ace G-Tech Soaring 2S 7.4V 2200mAh 30C LiPo battery represents a balanced engineering achievement that combines capacity, discharge rate and physical dimensions into an optimised package for mid-range RC applications. With a nominal voltage of 7.4V across two series-connected 3.7V cells, this battery delivers the optimal power envelope for RC aeroplanes, gliders, RC cars UK retailers stock extensively, compact RC boats and other small to medium-scale models. The 2200mAh capacity provides meaningful runtime—typically 15-25 minutes depending on the specific RC model and driving style—whilst the 30C continuous discharge rate ensures the battery can supply 66 amps of current when needed for aggressive acceleration, tight manoeuvres or high-performance flying. The soft-case construction with dimensions of 104mm length, 34.5mm width and 14.5mm height keeps overall weight to just 126 grams, ensuring the battery doesn't compromise your model's performance or flight characteristics. Gens Ace has engineered this pack using advanced LiPo cell technology developed through two decades of expertise, resulting in stable voltage delivery, minimal internal resistance and excellent cycle life even with regular use. The battery is suitable for all standard RC models designed for 2S 7.4V power, including foam wing aircraft, lightweight foam fuselage gliders, 1/10 scale RC cars, RC buggies, RC crawlers and RC boats that use compatible connector systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Can I use this battery with my existing RC charger? — Yes, absolutely. Whilst this battery is optimised for G-Tech Eco Smart chargers where it offers plug-and-play convenience through Auto Charge Technology, it remains fully compatible with all standard LiPo chargers currently available. If using a general charger, you'll need to manually programme the charge rate (typically 2.2A for standard charging or up to 4.4A for fast charging), but the battery will charge safely and effectively just like any traditional LiPo battery.
• Is this battery suitable for beginners? — Yes, this is an excellent choice for beginners and experienced RC pilots alike. The 2S 7.4V configuration is widely compatible with entry-level RC aeroplanes and RC gliders, the 2200mAh capacity provides reasonable flight times, and if you pair it with a G-Tech charger, the Auto Charge Technology removes charging complexity entirely, making it ideal for learning without technical barriers.
• What RC models work best with this 2S 7.4V battery? — This battery is perfectly suited for RC aeroplanes, foam wing aircraft, lightweight gliders, 1/10 scale RC cars UK enthusiasts use for backyard flying and driving, RC buggies, small RC boats and other compact models with 2S connectors. Check your model's manual to confirm it accepts a 2S 7.4V LiPo with XT60 connector before purchasing.
• How long will this battery last per charge? — Runtime depends on your specific RC model and flying or driving style. Typical usage provides 15-25 minutes of operation for RC aeroplanes and gliders, or 20-30 minutes for RC cars and boats, though aggressive driving with rapid acceleration will reduce this timeframe whilst gentle, steady control will extend it.
• Does this battery need a balancer when charging? — No. The universal G-Tech balance connector automatically balances the 2S cells when used with G-Tech Eco Smart chargers. If charging with a standard charger, simply connect both the XT60 discharge connector and the balance connector to your charger, and the charger will balance the cells automatically if it has balance charging capability.
• What does the G-Tech ID chip actually do? — The ID chip is a smart microchip that stores your battery's chemistry type (LiPo), capacity (2200mAh), voltage (7.4V), cell count (2S) and recommended charging parameters. When connected to a G-Tech supported charger, this data is automatically read and communicated to the charger, which then sets optimal charge rates without any manual input from you, eliminating user error and ensuring safety.
• Is this better than a standard 2S LiPo battery? — The main advantage over standard 2S LiPo batteries is the G-Tech Auto Charge Technology and ID chip, which provide plug-and-play convenience and enhanced safety when used with compatible chargers. The battery cells themselves are of equal quality to premium standard LiPos, but the intelligent charging integration offers significant convenience benefits that serious RC enthusiasts will appreciate.
