Hi Edgar
Are you sure you have a 6 cell 1100mah pack? The engines were always shipped with a 8 cell(9.6v) with a minimum capacity of 1200mah. This will give you up to two flights, but we reccommend that you recharge after every flight. If you are using a 6 cell pack, that might also explain why you are having a hard time starting in the engine as you stated in you other post.
The draw on the battery is the highest during the start sequence where you can see a momentary peak of 20 amps when the starter and the glow driver are engaged.
If you want more capacity, you could go to a 11.1 v Duralite battery pack without any adverse affects on the engine operation.
Sincerely,
Ed

Hello,
1- What will be a suitable replacement battery for th ECU? Now I have a six cell, 1100 mah. Looking for capacity.
2- What is a representative loading in the battery that is comparable to the drain during startup (starter spinning). Looking for a mah figure to use during battery cycling.
I have a schulze chamaleon and a triton as chargers.
Thanks,
Edgar
