how long does one battery last when like thrashing it around?

[6LtrJet]

The speed controller has 3 modes, RACE/SPORT/TRAINING.

Ive used TRAINING (which only allows 50% throttle) about 3 or 4 times for a battery run time of 20-25 mins.

Ive used SPORT (which allows 100% throttle,brakes,reverse) a couple of times for about 20 mins of runtime.

and in RACE mode (100% throttle, 100% brake, NO REVERSE) - Id say 10-15mins runtime is fair.

The ESC has a low voltage sensor which protects the battery from fully discharging, if you charge and equalise the battery as per the charger settings - runtime will remain constant and the battery will last you a long time.

I got one of these a few weeks ago, they're great fun and sure do fly. Alot different to drive to the nitro Savage I had before, but the off the line speed is insane, and I'm not even running lipo's yet.
