Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone had any experience with any batteries beyond the 2100 mah range in the B400. I have a THunderpower batt (which is awesome by the way) and I get 8-9 solid minutes out of it (could push it to 10...but I usually am now bringing it in at about 9). I am not doing any 3d....just around the patch flying now.

I was thinking that about 12-14 would be about PERFECT for this heli and was wondering if anyone has found a batt in the 2600mah range that will fit and not be too heavy. I know at some point it is a diminishing return.

Thank you!

I greased the main shaft bearings and teflon coated the belt and ladjusted the gears :main and tail and I get over 12 minutes on the stock battery and it holds about 1400 mAh. gear mesh on the gear that drives the belt was`very tight and I had to enlarge the holes that the screws go throught so I could move the belt gear back. Also to answer your question I use 2250 mah loongmax and they fit well.
