A lot has been said about the favorable power-density ratios of lithium polymer batteries, but iwas woundering if anyone has some exact figures on capacity/weight or power/weight for lithium batteries. I'm working on putting together a design code for UAV's and want a way to estimate the weight vs capacity for the batteries. Thanx.

I don't think there's one specific power density for ALL LiPoly batteries. For example, the Kokam 2100 20C cells are heavy for their rated capacity.
Power density's pretty easy to calculate, right? Divide capacity by weight. Both are listed with most batteries.
