Found this formula on RCGroups to calculate flight time -
(Battery Capacity * 60) / (Average Current * 1000)
Is it accurate for me to calculate my flight time as follows:
Half Throttle: 7A ; Full Throttle: 22A
Flight Time @ Half T: (2170 * 60) / (7 * 1000) = 18.6 min
Safe Flight Time @ Half T: 0.75 * 18 = 13.5min
Flight Time @ Full T: (2170 * 60) / (22 * 1000) = 5.9min
Safe Flight Time @ Full T: 0.75 * 6 = 4min
Therefore if flying with 50%-75% throttle - 10min is definitely not an issue?
Is this the way to calculate?
Thanks!
