Default Axe 100 CP power drop after 2 mins

Hi I have a axe 100 cp. After the first 2 mins of flying the power drops. I can switch packs and get another 2 mins or so out of the next pack. I thought it was the lipos so I got 2 more. I am charging them with a triton eq and its only putting back 75-90mAh. The motors pretty warm but not super hot. Any Ideas why I am only getting a short flight time and it doesnt seem to be using all the mAh's in the pack?

Thanks

Many have had that same issue with walkera stuff and it was the type of connector used for the battery and it looks like your helimax which i believe is a rebranded nine eagles heli uses the same conector. When mine did it i switched to micro deans and have had no problems since .http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXDKA2

I've had the same issue make sure your pitch is'nt to high also if your using the stock tx I put the gyro stick down gives more power and last longer I haven't tried the different connections but that makes sense to it all about the little things

Mine did this after I had worn out the main motor. If you have flown a lot, might be a possibility.

I will be switching over to jst connecters and hopefully that will fix the problem.

Default Power fail 100cp

I got my CP about a week ago, I do have 7 batteries and have flown almost every day. first pack is fine, wait 10 min and fly the next and it will cut power about 2 min in if you are high enough you can save it when it spools back up 10 sec later. today I flew all 7 the first pack did great, second had a power fail until pack 6 and 7 they did great. im flying 2 250mah I would recommend using these and KBDD blades
