RX Battery Drain

[syn-]

I'm looking to equip my new T-Rex 600 with a LiPo pack from FlightPower and I'm a little up in the air over which size (mAh) pack to go with. On all of my other helis I run a duralite battery setup (4300mAh) and use their charger, which means I have no clue how much power is actually drained from the pack after a day of flying since I can't see how much goes back in.

Soooo, does anyone have any idea what the average draw is on the RX pack on a 3D heli setup with high strength digital servos (Futaba 9254)?

Oh and for what its worth, I'm looking to go with the 2170mAh Evo-RX pack...


Thanks guys!

Hi Lee,
I use the 1800 on mine & get around 5 5min flights using Hitec Dig. Servos. Of coarse I'm not a serious 3Der but the 2170 pack should get you the same pretty easy.
