Freewing f-22 with 10,000 mah . Round 2 ! Is it worth it ??

[@derjoh1986]

Mr Andy! Superb flying sir! I was just thinking, though. Although you expressed the weight of the battery may not be the problem, actually it still may have something to do with it. Although it does not seem like a problem while flying the plane, the plane is still carrying more weight, therefore a little extra power is needed to do similar maneuvers you would do with a lighter (like a 5000 mah) lipo battery, although may not be noticeable extra power. Usually, the more milliamps within the LiPo battery, be prepared to have more weight within your battery. Now as far as the flight time, do same test with a 4000mah 60c + lipo battery and see what happens. If you don't get similar flight times, it will definitely be close to it due to the much lighter weight. To be honest, I think between 4500 and 6500 mah are the sweet spots for planes like the one you were flying in the video.

@@ficosk8 thanks! Ooh yeah f-22 turns on point ! That is one thing I love about it , you can really yank on the elevator..

[@ficosk8]

@@andystoybox1723 cool! Probably as a F-16 or Mirage? I have gotten careful with the elevator on all my jets but indeed some should take that abuse for sure :D Look, this week I first flew my LiIon pack on my Mirage. Flying time 4:30, throttle time 2:40, 3,80V after landing but this LiIon can be drained at least down to 2,8V. So the pack had still around 70% of "fuel", although at the end you would have much less punch as the voltage and the current drop...

I run a SMC 10,300 lihv in mine. I get 9 min of heavy throttle and the jet doesn't care about the weight at all

Good test. I have a lot of df jets and fly on 6400 hsd batteries for 3.5 minutes with about 30 percent left on my 90mm jets.

Good job Tiger Dragon, how much for 10,000 mah battery?

[@andystoybox1723]

Like 140.00 for 2 of them

Thank you for sharing, amazing flying skills. What was the flight time for 5000 mah pack?

@@iriquiosgunship thank you ! About 3 min I like to hammer on the throttle.. I thought maybe with the 10000 it would give me reasonable time limit for my flying style .. 🤷🏻‍♂️
