4S Battery High Voltage Sag?

You should be running a 6S battery.

With a 1555 and 4S you are getting 430 grams of thrust per motors at 50% throttle. That comes out to 1620 grams total. The aircraft is under powered and that causes high current and significant voltage sag. I’d guess hover throttle is around 60%. That’s not “bad” but you are cutting into the amount of throttle you have left for attitude control.

If you run 6S, at 50% throttle each motor will make about 820 grams of thrust for a combined total of 3280 grams and the aircraft will be overpowered. To get closer to a hover throttle of 50%, go with a 1344 on 6S. You will get 550 grams per motor for a combined 2200 grams (2.2Kilos) of thrust.

To get a better handle on this we need to know what the DRY (no battery) weight is. Then we can play with battery weights and give you recommendations that will give you the most flight time using the 1555 props. My thinking is a 6S 10000mAh.

I have a slightly stretched Tarot 650 Sport. I’m running 350Kv motors on a 10000mAh LiPo swinging 1655 props:
