Default Good Discharge rate for testing RX packs

What is good amp discharge rate for testing RX packs for a plane with 5 hitec HS645 servos in it. I would like to get an idea of how many flights I can get from a 1600 mah battery.

Default RE: Good Discharge rate for testing RX packs

IMHO you can not predect servo current draw.
I made a power extention with an open to place my current meter(DMM) to measure it.
This also is a great tool on new planes I had some binding issues on some old planes I never new about.
Most numbers were in 300mA to 600mA range. BTW........Static ..not in the air under load numbers
