Default Corona 120 flight times?

I now fly a aerohawk micro heli. It flies pretty well 3-4 minutes, but the remaining flight-time (3-4 mins) is just "crap" flight-time. It does not have enough power to do other things than low hovering.
Is this the case with the Corona 120 too? How long quality flights can you have with it?

I get 7-8 minutes on my brushless and my 2000RC Sanyo 8 pack, and 11-12 minutes on my 3300 NiMH Sanyo 8 pack.

I'm getting about 15 min with a saft 3200 pack and an atomic force motor. I've heard of 30 min with lipo and a brushless.

But is this quality flights? Do the bird have enough power through the entire flight-time so you can fly as you want all the time?

With a Mega 16/15/3 brushless motor and an 8 cell 2400 mah nicad pack, I get 9 solid minutes of hovering. Throw in some forward flight, and that goes up to 10-11 minutes with solid power throughout the flight. When the power goes down, so does the helicopter. Great machine. I'm having a blast with it.
