9CHPS power draw at idle

[tppjr]

Does anyone know if the TX draws less power from the battery at idle or is it the same all the time?

Thanks,

Its transmitting, it doesnt really care what you are doing with the sticks. Pressing buttons and making it beep beep beep probaby draws more.

it *may* draw a VERY small amount less @ idle but in the real world, it draws the same.

the difference would be so small to actually measure so it's not important.

Thanks for the input. Trying to get a good feel for in use time for the 2700 NMH packs so I was leaving it on and just sitting. Looks like about 5.5 hours.

My 1650 pack will fly all weekend.
