JR Heli Vibe - Airskipper - Sylphide - Venture > How many flights per gallon of fuel on Vive with OS .50?

I am curious as too how many flights you guys flying the Vibe are getting from 1 gallon of fuel. Im regretting never building my Vibe and selling it thinking I would be spending too much in gas, but when I planted my little 450 and see how easy it is to kill a 80.00 battery, it makes me question my decision to avoid a larger nitro. Not to mention stability. I guess I would too like to know for a YS motor as well. Thanks!!

i stretched a gallon to 17 flights... but lowered my flight times to 6:30 minutes... i always land about half a tank... motor is running around 200 degrees.. i am happy with that..

It depends on how low you run the tank. If you fly short flights, and land with 3/4 tank, you get lots of flights. If you end every flight when the engine quits from lack of fuel, about 12 flights.
