| I have a 4s4p 8000 lipo, I ran it in a recommended by flying 5 min flights with 15 - 20 min breaks in between.
Flew it just hovering for a few times after this and it seemed ok.
Last few times I have flown I flew around fairly agressivley for about 10 mins and went home, when charging the pack took around 4000ma which I though to be about right.
I flew the same again today then when I got home I put a DVM on it and ran at hover pitch untill I was down to 12.5v, it took 3 mins so a total of 13 mins.
Problem is the charge took over 3 hours and still only put just under 4000ma back in, The charger was set at 14.8v and 2.5a, it does get all the way to 2.5 and then ramps down slowly so all looks ok.
I am using a triton charger, does this sound like a problem with the charger or is my nearly new lipo knackered after only a few flights.
I was thinking of going to see if I could get a shultz charger in the morning but if the battery is at fault there isn't much point |
