The p-100 uses 200-250mAh from start to flight to cool down. I use a 3cell 2100mAh LiFe from jetcat.

So how many flights do you get with this battery? 7 to 8 start up and cool down?
After about 5-6 I don't feel comfortable flying without charge so I do charge. I can go to 7-8 but am uncomfortable not charging. I also use an external fan too help with the cool down to save ecu battery. My Rx battery takes about 200mAh each flight and I have two 2500mAh A123 packs. I don't have to charge theses until I'm out of 6gal of jet-a (about 10 flights).
