From the Rotor Riot video instructional on how to turn the Panasonic NCR18650 3400mah batteries into Fatshark lipos with battery level indicator, I designed a case to go with it. It is an extremely tight fitting design and I recommend you only try this if you are great at soldering. Not for beginners, and I may design a simpler version for newbies in the future if enough requests.
What you need:
2x Panasonic NCR18650B 3400mah batteries (ebay, amazon)
2s Lipo Battery Voltage Display Indicator Board (banggood, ebay)
2S Balance plug (ebay, amazon)
5.5 x 2.1mm DC Power Male Jack right angle (ebay, amazon)
cyanoacrylic glue or 2-parts epoxy
hotglue
Tips:
You do NOT need to dremel the ends of the battery to get the wires to adhere, a simple metal file or sandpaper will do the trick to remove the oxidation layer for solder to wick.
Use thin wires for the voltage indicator board as to fit inside the casing
inject a bit of hot glue where the power lead and balance plug exits to keep it in place from being tugged on.
