2s 3500-3600mah on my N7. When I ran RX packs on my electrics I used 2200mah Spyders because they can be charged quickly. I just use the Kontronik BEC now as it's more consistent... and easier... and BEC logs

I run a Optipower 2S 5000mAh on my N7 as I felt it needed some more weight in the nose. Last all day.

On my ongoing E7se project I am using the Kontronik Kosmik Cool 200A and it has a very good BEC that I am going to use toghether with a Optipower Ultra-Mega Guard backup.

2.2Ah LiFe on the E5-S. Gets about 10 flights.

3Ah LiFe on the N7. I've never managed to dump it, but I know I can go past 12 flights.

Suppose I'm getting about 10 flights on the 2S 3600mah I use... Probably more.. I haven't really gauged it... The electric birds have a LED indicator.. The nitro I have telemetry... Seems like I can burn a gallon of fuel to one pack.. Need to figure that out.

I got a scare when using a LiPo (2400mAh) pack at about 30% on my N7 and got a massive glitch when pushing the cyclics. I let go of the sticks and it came back and I landed immidately. So now I never go longer than 35-40% capacity.

What the heck, I get like 4-5 flights out of my 3600s on the N7, and got 4 from 2250s when I used them on my electrics? How low are you guys running your rx packs?

Better question might be what servos are you all using?

I run the MKs 950/980 combo's in my N5c, N7 and Turbine. I can easily go 6 flights on either nitro, but only let myself fly 4 times with the turbine. Again, 2700 2s
