What are your flight times?

[dedados]

What are they? good to include HS, batts, motor, pinion, blade size and esc.

Batt: 2200 3s turnigy (old)
HS: 1800~ dunno, depends on batt voltage
Motor: scropion 2221 1630kv
Pinion: lynx solid 13tooth
Blades: 325mm edge
esc: CC ice lite 50
Flight time - 7mins to 3.80v per cell


Batt: 1250 6s gens ace
HS: 2850 CC gov
Motor: scropion 2221 1630kv
Pinion: lynx solid 13tooth
Blades: 325mm edge
esc: CC ice lite 50
Flight time - 6mins to 3.77v per cell

Lets see!

1250mah Pulse 6s battery
3000-3200
350mm Zeals
MSH 1300 kv Motor with 14t pinion (used to run 16t)
Right around 4 minutes for me

Mini Protos lightweight

batt: 2200 3s turnigy 40C
HS: ~2600 - 2800
Motor: scropion 2221 2580kv
Pinion: 15t
Blades: 325mm sab
esc: YGE 60
Flight time ~ 5mins to 3.75v per cell

Mini Protos stretch 3S

batt: 2650 3s zippy 45C
HS: ~2600 - 2800
Motor: scropion 2221 2580kv
Pinion: 15t
Blades: 353mm edge
esc: YGE 60
Flight time ~ 5mins to 3.75v per cell

Flying style "soft" 3D

Mini prôtos stretch 6S

Lipo : Dinogy 6S 1300 65C
HS : 3000-3400
Motor: Scorpion 2520-1360kv
Pinion: 16t (warp pinion)
Blades: Rjx 360mm vector
ESC: YGE 60
Flight time : 3mins to 3.73v per cell (~20%)

Big air/3D

I'm probably going to try running a smaller pinion to run 3000rpm with a little more flight time, also a more efficient Xnova 2618-1350.
Atm, flight time doesn't really change between 3000 and 3400rpm, but 3400rpm is too fast for me.

3s Nano-Tech A-spec 65c
YEP 40A
Stock Scorpion 3s motor
15t pinion
SAB 350mm blades
3100 rpm = 4 min flight
2500 rpm = 7 min flight

[madeye]

6S Stretch kit, HW 50A V3 instead of YGE
350mm Radix blades
2100RPM
longest flight - 9:36
normally - 8...8:30
1000mAh per telemetry is the signal to land, normally end at 1060-1080mAh

2200 3S Turnigy and Gens Ace, 5 minutes of "enthusiastic sports" flying, usually leaves batteries at about 3.75 volts

[dedados]

For some reason I can't edit my first post so an update:

Batt: 1250 6s gens ace
HS: 2800 CC gov
Motor: scropion 2221 1630kv
Pinion: lynx solid 13tooth
Blades: 325mm edge
esc: CC ice lite 50

Flight time - 4mins to 3.83v~ per cell Sport Flying in the garden
4mins to 3.79v~ per cell 3D

BTW I charge to 4.17v per cell to increase life of the batter+faster charge

[sp00fman]

Two identical models, one standard, one low-head.
335mm blades,
3S scorp motor
15T pinion
Various 3s2200mAh Turnigy packs, 30C to 45C (no nano-tech, they all died)

4:20 flight time 3D. Does bog slightly sometimes but fine for me.

[dedados]

Update because of new motor.

Batt: 1250 6s gens ace
HS: 2850 CC gov
Motor: stock 6S
Pinion: lynx solid 15tooth
Blades: 325mm edge
esc: CC ice lite 50
4mins to 3.76v~ per cell HARD 3D

Those are excellent flight times! What is the voltage at the end of the flight? I am surprised that you get the same amount of time as me with 3S, 350 blades and higher HS

Do you run a larger lipo?

[Jomaba4308]

I use 2200 packs, average is about 3.7 per cell and 20-30% capacity left according to my hitec cell checker.
