I have had my P3P for just under 2 years now and fly it on average 1-2 times a month. I realised yesterday that i only get about 10 minutes out of my batteries now. Which is poor.

Questions:
Has anyone else had a the same experience?
Has anyone tried generic batteries?
Does anyone have a general maintenance /service routine for their P3P? Like ckeaning motors etc.

Thanks for any advice in advance.

Regards
 
Keep the batteries at 40 to 50% charge in a cool place when not using. As to general maintainance there isn't anything other than replacing defective parts. Watch the shell for cracking around the motor mounts and turn the motors by hand to check for axial play, roughness or end float. Other than that if the props look good (check the condition of threads and hubs for cracks) enjoy flying.
