Hi guys, how long does those 3.7V battery works fine ?!

I've 4 different batterys here ( 400 - 500 mah ) but now all of them can take only 2 mins of normal flight...

It used to last at least 8 minutes of flight... but now on each charge it seems to get worse...

any tips ?! or is it any max charges life time ?!

thanks.

I would say look into how your heli is set up. Has anything changed? do you have to give it more power?

nothing changed at all... each charg it is lasting less time.. and what is fun.. that each time it takes less time to charge also ¬¬...

anyway i'm going to check and change all pit set up and change the mainblades

How many flights have you got out of it so far?

over 5 for each battery each day

i too found my earlier stock 10C lipos running out of flight time really quick (less than 2mins of flight) and decided to order new 20C lipos ... of coz that kept flight time to about 5-6mins
read alot about how micro deans improved power and performance in RCG
changed to micro deans .. the older stock lipos that i tought had given up suddenly had NEW LIFE !!!
power was much better and flight times was back to normal like when i first got them new ... so do yourself a favour and go micro deans

+1 on micro deans, but watch the polarity.
