If you're looking for a top quality battery pack for your Radiomaster TX16S with decent life (run time), the Gens Ace 4000 2S TX pack is a great fit and good value for around $25 USD.
Let's look at the size of this TX16S battery option, install it and calibrate the battery voltage on the TX16S. Lastly, we'll calculate the safe running time for this TX16S battery pack.
To calibrate the TX16S battery voltage and calculate the run time, you'll need a digital multi-meter (DMM). However, from the video, I'll show the operating current of a typical TX16S with full screen brightness and volume level, so you could use that value for any other TX16S LiPo battery pack you might want to get a battery life estimate on.
You could also perform a rough voltage calibration by subtracting about 0.03V from the battery pack's open circuit voltage if you can't test your battery while it's running in your radio.
