Default Flight time

So my bride bought me the blade sr for christmas, i have not been able to really fly it yet. Yesterday with travling for christmas and such. How long can i expect for flight time out of this heli with stock battiers? How do most guys time there flights or know when to land before you run out of power? Im pretty new at flying this is my first CP. Had a MSR before.

i fly mine for 9 mins doing some pretty decent hard flying, If its ur first CP, my SR was, then you'll prolly just be hovering at first unless you have sim time (sims are GREAT money savers) so you can hover for 10-11 mins witht the stock battery and transmitter. once you start really flying, 9-10 mins works for me.

I would agree with flight times listed, I set the timer on my DX7 for 8 minutes and come in a little after that. You could get 10-11 min but I had it fall out of the sky one time and stick with 8 minutes now. Have Fun with the SR I love mine....

Yea, never test batery length. don't over discharge it. 8-9 min timer is good.
