What flying time you guys getting ?

Adam F · 10-06-2012, 06:51 PM

Just was wondering what flying time you all are getting on your nitro x50 ? I am getting 8 mins with a YS 60sr . My older raptor I used to get 10 but I was using a OS 50 . So just was wondering , thanks in advance .

11 mins OS50, 1950 rpm, 600 mains, mild 3D
9.5 mins OS50, 2100 rpm, 600 mains, more aggressive but still mild 3D
9 mins OS50, 2100 rpm, 620 mains

Header tank is still full

620's are too big for the 50 and bogs the motor down. It needs either more power or less blade.

I was getting 6min 30sec of 3D, head speed of 2,150 RPM, OS-55 w/ Funtech B320, no header tank, 30% nitro of various brands, Edge 603mm FBL blades.

Thanks guys for the reply , I am doing mild 3D ys60 and some where in the range 2250rpm and getting 8 mins with the header tank half full at the end of 8 mins . I have the ys on the rich side so mabe when she is ready to lean I should get a min or so . I just have to wait and see .

Try not to dip into the header tank. 8 min is a lot of flying.

i get 6 min 30 sec of 3d flying with ys56. ill come down on half header tank at that time.

I didn't really measure whole tank so far. It's just too long with stock .53 Redline. I've had 8 minutes with 30% Coolpower and landing with half of the tank after figures 8.
Now back in Europe i have 20% Rapicon and seems like times will be unchanged.

My estimate is 12+ minutes on full tank (without header tank ofc).

But like mentioned, 8 minutes is a lot of flying.

too damm short. os55 and outrage pipe. i don't time it, but it goes thru a tank faster than my ys91 in a rappy 90. feels as quick a flight as my trex550. i would guess about 6 min.

6min with no headertank. Os55 with powerboost pipe.
