If your P1 has the cross-threaded motors, you might want to try the stock 9" props from the P2, those can bump up your flight time as well (but handle a bit differently than the 8" props from the P1).

They perform better than even 3000mAh Zippy's I've used.

alright i'm sold!
I use the same batteries and the stock charger works fine for me.Jermz said:What do you need to charge the zippy and maddog batteries? Do you use the stock charger or do I need to buy something else? I know li-po's are crazy about a lot of stuff, so I want to jake sure I'm doing it right.

You can use the stock charger and charge them at 1.1CJermz said:What do you need to charge the zippy and maddog batteries? Do you use the stock charger or do I need to buy something else? I know li-po's are crazy about a lot of stuff, so I want to jake sure I'm doing it right.

If you want to charge faster you would have to upgrade.
Basically 1C = 2.7 on a 2700mah, or 5.4 on a 5400mah. So on and so forth.
My G8 5400mah is capable of 5C charging, 5.4x5=27amps :shock: Supposedly 5mins from 11.3 to 12.6
I hear ya, gotta be careful.Jermz said:I may consider a new charger when I get some bigger batteries. I mainly wanted to make sure they wouldn't blow up on me.

I weighed them in at 201g each, compared to the stock 170g
charging them up now, will do some comparisons with standard
Jmm_jammy said:First flights complete
I flew all 3 lipo (1x standrad 2200, 2x FirstPersonView 2700) within the same hour, same weather conditions & temperature.
All flights included zenmuse, DJI mini osd, GoPro 3 black, Fat Shark 250mw vtx, P2 props
Standard 2200 - Flight time 7:58 14% @ 11.31v
ATTI mode figure of 8 smooth flying. Landed within 20 seconds of first warning
FPV 2700 - Flight time 11:07 14% @ 11.14v
ATTI mode figure of 8 smooth flying. Landed within 20 seconds of first warning
Standard 2200 - Flight time 9:21 14% @ 11.28v
GPS mode, Hard flying - full left to right and full thorttle bursts, moving gimbal a lot
Im surprised i got all 3 flights lipo down to 14%! weird, I need to change the voltage settings in DJI Assistant. I assume take 30-45 seconds of each flight to land within the recommended 20%.
Anyway, overall I'm extremely pleased with the first person view 2700mah lipo, and I'm sure they will improve slightly is this was thier very first flight.
