Hi guys.

I'm finding I am very low on power on my CX2 after around 20-30 flights. Mainly on a turn, it loses power and drops a lot, and it battles to regain the power for a few seconds, with the throttle at full... It seems I also lose power more frequently after around 4 minutes. I charge the packs, and have around 50% left in them...

Is my battery dying?

Can anyone recommend a replacement that will fit out of the box, connectors and all?

The only battery that will fit with no mods and has the same balance connector is the Common Sense RC 800 mah battery, FlightPower makes a 800mah battery that will fit also, but it has a different balance connector. I use a Thunder Power 910 mah that I tape to th bottom, it uses a different balance connector than the stock one.
