I have recently bought two thunder power extreme series 25c 2070 packs but I don't believe I am getting enough capacity. they currently have about 10 cycles each. for the first 5 or so cycles i only used about 1100ma per cycle. after that I decided to lengthen my flight times on my trex but noticed a good amount of power drop before I expected it but only replaced about 1500ma after power dropping. To find out what capacity i am getting I used the discharge cycle on my ripmax pro peak2 charger and then returning it to a full charge. what I found was that from a low voltage cut off point to max charge was only 1730ma on one pack and 1840 on the other. both packs have always been balanced with a astro blinky balancer. Has anyone else seen this? I'm pretty bummed with this. These packs are replacing a common sense rc battery and a poly rc battery that both held the rated capacity.
