Figure about 400-500 mAh per wot running hour on a 4.8v single plug ignition. Most people waaay over battery their ignition systems.
Yes 100% agree. Also Rx. A 2300mah 2S1P A123 lasts me 5 14 minute flights w/ 1 flight to spare on a 30% plane w/ 5x 7955TG, a 5245MG on the throttle and HS81 choke. These batteries can be charged at 4A w/ a heavy duty servo wire, so a 10 minute charge adds another 2 flights. I rarely do more than 5 flights anyway. Many use over 4 Amps in their 30% planes. Power boxes, balancers etc, the more you add the more can fail.
