e-Minicopter Joker > Flight time seems short

Larry

Hey all,

I had the joker at the field today and it flew nice and smooth..

The only problem is my flights were 5:45 long. I am running the 24-4 23 tooth and the governor running at 80% on the throttle channel..

The packs are gp 3300 32 cell. The packs have about 5 cycels on them.

I was hoping for 7:30 - 8 minutes....is it just that the batteries havent come up to capacity or is this all the time they will give...

Remember, 24-5 / 24 tooth... With the 24-4 you will need a 22 tooth pinion and the correct set-up to get the duration you are looking for...

I remember he flew at Cascade with a 24-4 but I don't remember the pinion? He also flys his Joker with 690 mm blades.
