Default RE: ECU battery, how many flights do you get out of yours?

Hey Bart,
Went out this past weekend and only did one flight. Charged before I went out so the battery should have been at full power. Temp was around 94 with 70% humidity. Did a normal startup with about 1 minute warm up on ground and 7 minutes on the timer plus maybe another minute on the ground and normal shut down and cool off period. I do use an aux. blower to help cool down.
As soon as I got home I charged the ECU battery and put in 406 ma which I think is about my norm.

I think you must be correct about the turbine spending to much time in the start up procedure. I can record my paramaters and send to you for cross referecne if you think that would help.
