Battery Time???

[mccd07]

I fly a TREX 450SE in low fight hover mode (nothing crazy) and I am wondering if my batteries are normal. The batteries are Thunder Tiger 2100 / 11.1V.

Any thoughts? I get about 12 minutes. Remember nothing crazy going on.

Thanks,

Michael

Sounds about right to me, if you were doing 3d you would usually only get 5-6 minutes on a battery of that size. Also you should try not to over-run the battery as it will damage the cells if they go below 2.5v per cell. Use a muli-meter and read the battery before & after a flight, which will give you a better idea of how that battery is coping.
