Old video, but I`ll go ahead and mention that VTC6 are Sony cells, not Panasonic. LG also have 3000mAh cells and they`re pretty good as well, another option could be Molicell INR-18650-P28A. If you want to go single cell, you might want to try 21700 cells as well, like Molicel INR21700-P42A, 4000 mAh and 45A max discharge. You could run a single 21700, get 4000 Mah and have plenty of amperage, so you can run on the most aggressive prope the AIO can handle ;) (gonna try that myself tbh)

You don't need any special settings. However i do not reccomend using a 1S battery. The flight will not be stable. Also you need good quality batteries - like the Sony VTC 6 or Panasonic brand. maybe the battery you are using can't supply the current.

I've flown the Tinyhawk Freestyle 2 quite alot with 3S cells (450-500mah 3S LiPo, also tried 500mah 3S LiHV 65-130C). I did not push it extreme on the throttle (tried to stay below 80%) and it flies very well. Are there smaller Li-Ion Cells with similar C-Rating that can be used in 3S or would even 3S (Li-Ion!) make sense? If by any chance you can try 3S Li-Ion, that would be awesome. The Voltage drops very fast to a 2S LiHV Voltage, so I assume it should be alright for the ESCs, as they can handle nonstop 2S LiHV all the time (judging by KZitem Channels flying this thing for more than 100 times with LiHV 2S)

But i don't want to try my tinyhawk on 3S LiIon just in case.

_Ideally_ you shouldn't really take 18650s below 3.0v without damaging the lifespan. BTW do you run them off a 100% full charge? Cos they start off at something like 4.2v - lol I wonder what kind of noticeable difference that would make to the drone's performance for the first minute or less of flight time. I use em for my mechanical (unregulated) vape and their wildly varying voltage makes them a pain in the arse to get a consistent pull off em lol (I end up swapping them out at 50%). But for real though, this is pretty cool what you've done with them 😁
