Default How to manage different flight times for 2 different batteries on DX6?

I have one set of batteries that fly for 3 min, and then another set for 4 min.

Is there a good way to set up a DX6 to handle 2 different times?

Is there a way to add one minute to a single flight, without changing the timer for all subsequent flights?

Setup 2 timers and only turn on the one you need?

No.You cant set one up so the variables will change from flight to flight.

The real solution? Use voltage telemetry and fly to the minimum voltage.

You should be able to use a voice command for Time Remaining...attach it to a switch so you can check time without looking at the screen

And set your timer to give you voice alerts at each minute and minute over, running past by a minute for the larger batteries

Set your timer to give minutes as it counts down. Set it for a four minute countdown. For the 3-minute model, just land at three minutes.
