What kinds of flight times are you guys getting with your Scorpion -6 Motors?

I am getting about 4 min with my Medusa 28-40-3200. I have a scorpion -6 coming this week (for my second Beam.)

Yea I am expecting about 3.5-4 mins of flight with that setup also. Curious how much are you putting back into your 2500 packs after 4 mins???

Actually, just checked my log and I was getting 4.5 mins, 1700-1900mAh.

Packs were too hot though, so I switched to -10 motor on 4S.

I don't currently have a 450, but here's the setup I liked best:

Scorpion HK2221-10, 12T
Jazz 40-6-18, gov mode 80%
FMA Revolution 4S 2100 18C packs <<< these are awesome, and cheap!

Headspeed 3300-3400 rpm, 5.0-5.5 mins, packs just slightly warm.

I have tried many different setups on the 450, this one beats them all hands down.
