The typical 370 carbon brushed motor lasts on average about 150 flights using an 11.1 volt LIPO battery before burnout.
Isn't the "standard" LIPO upgrade for the HBFP a 2 cell (8.4 V)? I'm thinking of getting one and wanted to get a couple of extra batteries, as well. Do people put 3S (11.1 V) LiPo's into these, or was that a mis-statement?
Yes, you are correct (standard" LIPO upgrade for the HBFP is a 2 cell 8.4 V). You wouldn't want to use an 11.1V battery on the stock motor (That's what I'm using on my Trex 450!)
