In the preceding examples the average current was 2.62 amps, which

calculates to 435mAh per 10 minutes (typical flight length). It’s

recommended that only 60% of the available capacity be used to ensure

plenty of reserve battery capacity. In this example using two 4000mAh

batteries (8000mAh total capacity) x 60%= 4800mAh (available useable

capacity) divided by the capacity used per 10 minute flight 435mAh

would allow up to 11 flights of 10 minutes each.

Recommended Guidelines for Battery Capacity
• 40-45% Aerobatic aircraft w/ 9-12 high-current servos- 4000-8000mAh

• 33-35% Aerobatic aircraft w/ 7-10 high-current servos- 3000-6000mAh

• 25% Quarter-Scale aerobatic aircraft w/ 5-7 high-current servos- 2000-4000mAh

• Jets—BVM Super BANDIT, F86, Euro Sport, etc.- 3000-6000mAh

• Giant-scale jets—BVM Ultra Bandit- 4000-8000mAh

• Scale aircraft— The variety of scale aircraft and the accessories they use vary

tremendously making it difficult to give capacity recommendations

for these types of aircraft. Using the above aerobatic guidelines

relative to the size and number of servos used provides a

conservative capacity for your scale aircraft. As always, check

battery charge condition before each use.
