Hi Simstok
If using a 2200mAh battery 20C is plenty. The Phantom1 and FC40, if flying at DJI's recommended All Up Weight, don't pull over 30Amp (2200mAh X 20C = 48Amp).
I use Turnigy 2200mAh 20C batteries and I get nearly 11minutes on my Phantom1 with gimbal and camera. Like many I have modified my Phantom to take the Multistar 4000mAh 10C batteries and I get just over 17minutes on the same Phantom setup. Other changes I have made is to install the larger 9inch props and set my second level protection to 10.4Volt under load.
I'm not familiar with the Floureon batteries but like many other LiPo batteries their capability may improve after a few charge/discharge cycles.
A higher C Rated battery will have a lower voltage sag under high loads but will not significantly increase your flight times, only a higher capacity battery will do this hence the reason I made the modification to take the slightly larger 4000mAh 10C battery.
Regards
Nidge |
