Could I get some feedback on how many cycles I can expect to receive on Thunder Power 6S5000mAh packs. They would be at 80% discharge each flight and balanced during and after a charge.

I got 2 TP 6s 5000 Extreme's i've been flying on 90 size helis since February of 2007 before that they were used on a Trex 600 i'd guess close to 200 cycles by now. still have plenty of punch... chuck

ThanksThanks for the feedback guys. I want to get into a larger electric helicopter and was worried that if I spent $300 for a pack it would not give me enough cycles to justify the purchase over another nitro, but from what I hear here it is well worth it and I will be saying goodbye to nitro. Well maybe except for a 90
