The new motor really eats up the battery. It doesn't last as long as the stock motor at all. It doesn't seem like it is running any faster either. I don't need more power, I need more run time! Do you have any ideas that will make this thing run longer? I don't have much space for larger batteries nor could I afford the weight so I may be stuck with it. Makes me want to buy a gas airplane, but gas is such a headache plus all the accessories I would have to buy to get started. I'm sure gas is better for longer runs but the question is, how much better? Is there an electric out there with larger capacity batteries that actually last a decent amount of time? I just want 15 minutes..... REAL 15 minutes (since they all say will last 15 minutes (liars)).
gear the motor and run a bigger prop
