Flight Times...?

[J-Heli]

I'm using a 7.4V 800 mAh battery. I was just wondering what kind of flight times I could expct using the stock Gaui Hurricane 200 motor and ESC in the Gaui Hurricane 200. Thanks.

Why don't you tell us what you are getting, before asking us? :happyd

I am getting around 6 - 6:30 minutes out of my 850mAh Aplus batteries, doing very basic flying with a 80-70-60-70-80 throttle curve

I'm using the battery that came with my E-Sky Robins R22 for learning to hover.

6 minutes with an eflite 800 and 8 min with a mega power 850. Hover and figure 8 s in the garage. the mega power seem like a good deal as they are 6 -10 bucks cheaper than others. I haven't had mine for long so time will tell.

Has anyone tried hooking two together for a 2s2p configuration?
Looks like there is more than enough room and power.

In a series or parallel?

Paul - Crashpilot writes 2s2P -->>> P as in parallel. :tongue

How are you getting 30% more time with only 6% more mAh? When you fly for 8 minutes how much mAh do you put back into the pack? You might be over discharging cause 8min on 850 seem to be pushing it.

I don't know how much I am putting back, my balancer says 85% discharged. The Eflites are over a year old with a lot of flights.
