Jeevan Dont you think you have posted your query in wrong Section "Fore Sale" ??

To increase flight time, use Higher mAH battery pack. suppose presently you are using 7.2v 1000mAh then try to user higher mAh

What I understand is if you double your battery mAH, you will double your flight time  Wink

but obviously higher mAH also add weight on flight, try to buy higher mAH battery pack with same weight or near around existing one

Jeevan,

I just informed you, anyways you can use zippy, or Turnigy Nano Tech they are less in weight and give more power and Turnigy Nano need more care then normal LiPo. Not used Yet.

Bytheway what battery pack you are using ?? Give me detials of link ??

Note that increasing the mAH also increases weight, which in turn impacts the flight duration.  Increasing mAH will work to certain level, after which the weight effects will start to be significant.

ok you have increased 40 mah which is 33% or 1/3 of the original mah value of the battery of solo pro which was 120 mah , that is obvious it will increase the time 33% or 1/3

if we take the same thing to 2200 mah so we require 733.33 mah more = 2200+734 equals 3000mah

and the price will be much more than buying 2200 mah one more , also the time will be double as compare to 33% more time if we opt for 3000 mah batery.

High spirits we have: gravity we flout.



Try reducing weight of your quad. We (me & a friend) are stuck in a similar situation with a quad and have decided to replace all plywood parts with fibreglass or carbon fibre sheet.

One way to increase flight time is reduce the load on your batt. More load, more heat, less time. AU weight will be first thing to try and reduce.
A wrong motor + ESC combo will over work the battery to meet their demand, causing it to heat up. Even simple thnigs like motor-pinion, ESC's timing can make a lot of diff.

Also If your lipo is hot like you can't wrap your palm arund it at the end of flight, yu're probably drawing at a rate it can't actually supply.

Look for one with higher "C" i.e. discharge rate. Turnigy nanotech are really good choice you already made. Flightpower is probably better.
