battery amp draw
i have a 36% pilot sbach with a dle 111, hitec 7955,s on elevators,ailerons,7950 on the rudder and a 5645 on the throttle.i,m using 2300 123,s x 2 for the onboard batterys through 2 switches.everthing is new in the plane including the ignition battery.after two ten minute flights of mild 3d i recharged my batteries and they both took about 300ma.does this seem normal,i,m sure the batteries will draw more as i fly more aggressive.just wondering.any thoughts.in recent planes i usally just charge and go after about 3-4 flights.i never really paid attention to how much i put back into the batteries.

Yep, that sounds about right. On my 35%ers I usually use 125/130 out of each battery per 10 minute flight

You guys aren't flying hard enough LOL !! My 35% when using a123's on a 12 min flight burned 500mha per pack. Now I went to lipo's and use 300 per flight. Not sure why, only thing I can think of is the lipo's can't put out the amps of an a123 so it draws less out of the packs. The plane is way more resonsive on lipo's . The servos are really fast and powerfull now.

My 36% Sbach is set up with 1 - 7950 on each aileron, a 7950 on the rudder, 1 - 7955 on each elevator and a 5985 on the throttle. I also use and IBEC on the ignition and run no seperate ignition battery. I use around 525MA per 12 min flight.

Ive almost doubled my efficiency using Promodeler Servos over the other brands in the past .
