FWIW,
I haven't seen many people discuss it, but I have been using Li-ion
batteries for a while. I flew the entire two day contest at the Fall
round up, on a single charge. I use Fromeco 2400 two cell batteries,
and I checked the voltage periodically and I had plenty to spare. I
could have flown for another two hours I estimate. Again, this is in
a 3 servo Ava so not too much draw there. I use a MPI 6v regulator to
step down the volts, and so far so good.
I am building a Supra now, and It is quite an investment, so i'm
thinking of running dual batteries in it. I was flying giant scale
and running dual rx batteries is almost standard over 30 percent
airplanes, and with the sizes available, redundancy kinda makes sense.
Anyone else doing this or thinking of it?
