Well...a much discussed topic....but I'm of a mentality which believes its not so much how things look on paper...so to speak. It all depends on how you fly it...for example, If I'm doing a downhill ski event I'm operating in the cold, high altitude and fast forward, stop, up and all sort of gyrations. Same at a surfing event...except without the cold and altitude.....so just between these 2 different types of events there will be a significant difference in available flight time. But the next thing, and I believe this to be the most important, is how you care for the batteries...meaning storage, discharging etc....You can have the best battery in the world but if you don't treat it with respect then your battery flight time will be significantly reduced. So, in short, I personally cringe when someone asks "how much flight time will you get.." because there is a tremendous amount of variables.....plus I didn't even get into weight which is another factor. But...if you're just going to putz along...I agree with Peter and I have several 22000's and 16000"s. Hope this helps...
OK, thanks. |
