Adding capacitors to your setup can make your FPV video signal cleaner and your drone fly better. Low ESR capacitors can reduce video noise in the FPV feed, reduce noise that can damage the motor/ESC, radio control signals, and clean up noise from gyro sensors, thus improving flight performance. They can also protect electronic components from voltage spikes. Overall they are a highly recommended addition to any build.
The Unicon capacitor series has some of the lowest ESR (equivalent series resistance) values on the market. Having an ultra low ESR value means they can filter out noise better than other capacitors with higher ESR values.
Recommended Battery and Capacitor Usage Recommended Voltage Number:
4S: 25-35V
5S: 35V
6S: 35-50V
Capacitance : There are no rules on the total uF required, it depends on the power requirements of your quad and how loud it is. In general, use 330uF-470uF on the individual ESCs or 1000uF on the PDB/main battery connection. If the capacitor in your build continues to overheat after each flight, it could be an indication that the cap is too small.
Installation Tip : It is extremely important to understand the polarity of a capacitor. If you make a mistake, the capacitor will not work and may even explode. The shorter leg indicates negative (-) the longer leg is positive (+).

Exceptions / Non-returnable items
Some items cannot be returned, such as perishable goods (food, flowers, plants), personalized or made-to-order products, and personal care products (cosmetics). We do not accept returns on hazardous materials, flammable liquids, or gases. We do not accept returns on sale items or gift cards.
Exchanges
If you wish to exchange an item, the fastest way is to return it and place a new order for the new item.
Under the 24-month Legal Guarantee, Drone24Hours is responsible to the consumer for any defects in conformity that cannot be detected at the time of purchase.
The lack of conformity exists when the product is not suitable for the use for which it is normally intended, does not conform to the description or does not possess the qualities promised by the seller, does not offer the qualities and performances usual for a good of the same type, is not suitable for the particular use desired by the consumer if brought to the attention of the seller at the time of purchase and accepted by the seller (art. 129 of the Consumer Code).
Any lack of conformity which becomes apparent within 24 months of the date of purchase of the goods must be reported within 2 months of the date of discovery of the defect.
Unless proven otherwise, it is presumed that any lack of conformity that becomes apparent within 6 months of delivery of the goods already existed on that date. In the event of a lack of conformity, the consumer has the right to have the conformity of the goods restored, free of charge, by repair or replacement (art. 130 of the Consumer Code).
The consumer may ask, at his choice, the seller to repair the goods or replace them, free of charge in both cases, unless the requested remedy is objectively impossible or excessively expensive compared to the other. Repairs or replacements must be carried out within a reasonable time from the request of the Consumer; the average time for returning the product to the Consumer is 20 days.
If Drone24hours is unable to return the repaired product within the maximum period of 60 days, the consumer may request one of the alternative remedies (replacement, termination of the contract, price reduction).
Drone24Hours will send the product for any repairs to the Technical Assistance Center authorized by the Manufacturer.
What happens if the Service Center does not find the lack of conformity?
If the lack of conformity is not found, Drone24Hours will communicate the estimate to the Customer, who can decide whether or not to carry out the repair at his own expense. In this case, any transport costs and diagnosis of the defect requested by the Assistance Center will be borne by the Customer.
