DolphinRC Premium Kevlar FPV Battery Strap Review
Are you tired of batteries coming loose during your FPV flights? A quality FPV battery strap is the unsung hero of drone safety. In fact, over 65% of mid-flight failures are caused by unsecured batteries.
I’d like to introduce to you the Full Kevlar material FPV battery straps that we launched this month.
Why are we launching Full Kevlar FPV battery straps？
We created the DolphinRC Premium Kevlar FPV Battery Strap to address the frustrations we’ve experienced with existing battery straps. Many straps on the market tend to break, crack, or have their designs peel off over time, leading to frequent replacements. Moreover, while some straps incorporate Kevlar stitching, the rest of the strap often lacks this durable material. This inconsistency compromises the overall strength and longevity of the strap.
Determined to find a better solution, our team set out to design a truly robust battery strap. We focused on creating a strap that not only utilizes Kevlar stitching but also incorporates Kevlar throughout its entire construction. This comprehensive use of Kevlar ensures maximum durability and resistance to wear and tear.
The result is the DolphinRC Premium Kevlar FPV Battery Strap—a product born from firsthand experience and a commitment to quality. With its full Kevlar build, this strap offers enhanced strength and longevity, reducing the need for frequent replacements and providing reliable performance for FPV enthusiasts.
Display
Full Kevlar Construction: Unlike many straps that only use Kevlar stitching, this strap is made entirely of Kevlar material, providing exceptional tensile strength and resistance to wear and tear.
Anti-Slip Backing: The underside of the strap features an anti-slip area, preventing the battery from shifting during aggressive maneuvers or sudden movements.
Vibrant Yellow Design: The bright yellow color not only adds a stylish touch to your drone setup but also enhances visibility, making it easier to spot your drone during flight.
Applicable To Which？
Our all-Kevlar battery strap’s 250 mm × 15 mm footprint makes it a perfect match for the most popular 5-inch FPV setups. The 250 mm length sits right at the top end of standard strap sizes—most pilots choose between 230 mm and 250 mm to suit 4S–6S packs in 5-inch quads.
A width around 15–20 mm balances strength and low weight: ours is 15 mm, offering a slimmer profile while still matching the non-slip performance of typical 20 mm straps.
Feel & Test
Our Kevlar battery strap isn’t just built tough — it feels rock-solid the moment you wrap it around your pack. Thanks to a perfectly balanced loop of hook-and-loop (the “Comfort” surface) and our oversized iron buckle, you’ll notice three things as soon as you test it:
Immediate Grip
The hook-and-loop section is cut to the ideal length: long enough for multiple passes, yet short enough that every tooth locks in tightly on the first press. No more wrestling with extra fluff or awkward folds — just firm contact from end to end, so your battery stays exactly where you put it.
Zero Shift, Zero Worry
On your first gentle tug, you’ll feel how the strap resists movement. Even under hard pulls or quick maneuvers, the connection never gives. During real-world flight tests, pilots reported zero sliding or loosening, whether diving at speed or pulling up into a flip.
Beefy Buckle Confidence
Our buckle isn’t just a pretty face — it’s larger than standard FPV clasps, made of iron for maximum shear strength. When you thread the strap through and clamp down, there’s a reassuring “click” and no flex under load. On bench tests we pushed it to failure loads beyond typical flight stresses, and it held strong every time.
Weight
As you can see from the picture, our battery straps are lighter than those on the market. You know, in racing championships, this slight weight difference can also affect your flying experience during the race. We just want to make it to the extreme, light enough and of high quality.
Price
Our Full-Kevlar battery straps are also very affordable. Two of them are only $7.99. Compared with battery straps of other brands, they are really much more cost-effective.
Conclusion
The DolphinRC Premium Kevlar FPV Battery Strap delivers rock-solid security in a slim, 250 × 15 mm length that’s tailor-made for 5″ drone batteries. Crafted entirely from Kevlar, it combines extreme tensile strength with a vibrant yellow finish that stays looking sharp—no peeling graphics here.
The underside features a textured, anti-slip backing to lock your pack in place, while a perfectly sized hook-and-loop section ensures a firm hold on first press. An oversized iron buckle adds peace of mind, resisting flex even under hard pulls. Tested in aggressive maneuvers and bench-loaded beyond typical flight stresses, this strap never lets go—so you can push your quad harder.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best material for FPV battery straps?
Kevlar-reinforced straps offer the best combination of durability and strength for most pilots. These straps resist tearing even during severe crashes and maintain their elasticity longer than standard nylon options.
How many battery straps should I use on my FPV drone?
For optimal security, use two straps per battery—one near the front and one near the rear. This dual-strap configuration prevents the battery from levering out during crashes and provides redundant protection if one strap fails.
What size battery strap do I need for a 6S LiPo battery?
For standard 6S 1500-1800mAh batteries, choose straps that are 250-270mm in length and at least 20mm wide. Larger capacity batteries may require straps up to 300mm long.
Can battery straps prevent battery damage in crashes?
Yes, quality straps significantly reduce battery damage by preventing ejection during impacts and minimizing movement that can stress battery cells. Properly secured batteries are much less likely to experience internal damage or punctures.
How do I properly install FPV battery straps?
Thread straps through the frame slots, position one near the front and one near the rear of the battery, ensure they lie flat against the battery surface, and secure them firmly but without excessive pressure that could damage cells.
Are metal buckles better than plastic for battery straps?
Metal buckles offer superior durability and consistent tension, making them better for racing and freestyle applications. Plastic buckles provide weight savings but are more prone to breaking during crashes.
How long do FPV battery straps typically last?
Premium Kevlar-reinforced straps like the Dolphinrc battery strap typically last 9-12+ months of regular use. Basic nylon straps may need replacement every 3-6 months, while Velcro options often wear out in 2-4 months.
Can I use 3D printed battery straps for FPV drones?
While 3D printed TPU straps can work for light duty, they generally don’t match the reliability and security of purpose-made straps. They’re best used as supplementary solutions rather than primary battery retention.
