Almost had to update the board with last nights run trying this battery combo, but I ran the last 2000 feet on a hard 0% and dropped out of the sky 300' in front of me (only from 60 feet high into the grass[emoji41])

That depends on who you ask! Ask me I say it's MultiStar 5.2 single battery, ask unknown he'll probably tell you it's his 5.2 split,ask gadget guy he might tell you it's Maxamp 2800s. I personally like the big single batteries, but I think the 6.6 is too big. You should give it a try though, I found it to be awesome flight time, but the flight was too erratic! If you brake too hard the a/c almost does a backflip, if you're trying to keep throttle up and it's trying to autoland why you're trying to make it home it yaws to the left and right. Here's my tops:
1. 5.2 MultiStar
2. 4.0 MultiStar
3. Horizon five point to split
4. Maxamp 2000's

My flight time is max. within 30min. if I try 5.2 MultiStar ... Usually How min. flight time can possible??

Slap me down for #1 5.2 Multistar. Got 40mins in that battery.

40min. is usuall?

It seems that different people get different flight times with that same battery, with all batteries really, I think Ed got 39 minutes with the 5.2 single I get between 32 and 34 on P3P/A and we're flying similar styles. On P3S 5.2 single gives me 37 minutes flight time. So it might actually depend on what region your in, i'm starting to speculate that what region you're in effects battery flight time(only speculation though) if you're willing to strap a big single battery on the back of your aircraft(this is not prob not for everyone)I would pick up a 4.0 and a 5.2, start with the small one work your way up

 

[Ed209]

I flew mine a cool night. It was around 40f. The other factor is that some of these Multistar batteries are freaks. My 4000 takes 4200mAh consistently when running to 10%. If I remember correctly, I put 5166mAh back in after a flight to 1%. But I just get crazy performance out of the 5200.

Is connecting just XT60 Ok? No need to connecting balancer?

 

[Ed209]

Yup. They discharge evenly on their own. Balance does nothing.

 

[dirtybum]

Yep, my 5.2 has been putting 54 back in pretty consistently. Still don't top 34 min with it though, New motors or old on P3P/A.
4.0 puts 4000 back

My 4000 takes <=== What is mean? Is mean4000times flighting?

 

[Ed209]

Means when I charge the battery back up I check to see how many mAh are put back in to gauge capacity. A 4000mAh battery could have greater/less capacity.

A day free from wind, Can I possible 10miles within 34min. ?

 

[Dprice]

All stock p3a. Could have went further was a little windy tho

 

[dirtybum]

A day free from wind, Can I possible 10miles within 34min. ?

Its doable! My 9.3 mile flight had no wind that I could notice, GPS mode was maxed out at 35 mph on the way out and 35 mph on the way back with 1.6 FW. My actual flight time was probably only 31:30 landed at 3%
So with no wind flying 35 to 36 mph whatever your GPS tops out at, a 34 minute flight ,straight out straight back, (and I mean straight no fooling around) should be able to take you 10 miles

 

[dirtybum]

If the 5.2 MultiStar gives you flight time even in the middle from what me and Ed get, say 36 minutes, then on a calm night you should be able to do 10 miles pretty easily

Thank you, dirtybum Your flighting record, 49,104 ft is also used 5.2 MultiStar, What is flighting time for 49,104ft?

32:27 was the flight time but one minute of that was spent fooling around in the air. Straight there and back was 31:30

You should be getting better than that. Is this new motors?

I've got
Multi 4000 LiHV 33:47 to 10%
I don't have a run to 10% on the 5200 but I did get 39:45 to 1%
