ORIGINAL: schroedm

The Powerbox Royal reports a max current draw of 8.2A in my Skygate Hawk with 8 x 8711s on board.

Just to clear this up after a PM, the 8.2A is not what is consumed per flight!! That is around 550mah per 7min flight. The 8.2A is the peak current draw during the 7min flight. Probably full flap and holding in up elevator I'd guess during approach?
