Hello!
I am new to RC planes, but I flew FPV quadrocopters before. My question is: What flight time can I expect with the Simple Club (with recommended electronic pack) and how does this scale with the battery size?
Thank you for your answers!
Kind Regards,

i just maidened mine last week. 5-10 minutes of just cruising around at half throttle.Hello!

I assume you are talking about the Cub? IMO, the Scout flies a lot better and would be a much better trainer-type. I built the Cub before anything else and although I am sure it was something I did during the build process, it just doesn't fly well for me. Beautiful plane and design, but I messed it up somehow building it.
I just changed the angle of incidence to see if that helps some, but one more flight(crash) and I'm done with it.
i learned this when putting a 550 in my umx turbo timber. it only gives about 40% more flight time over the recommended 280.kawkawk123
Be aware that increasing battery capacity follows the law of diminishing returns. Bigger heavier battery needs more power to fly so some of the extra capacity is used just to keep flying. A double capacity battery does not mean twice the duration.
At some point the battery weight is so much that the plane either structurally fails or become very difficult to control. An 'optimised' battery is considered to give the best compromise between handling and duration but ultimately it is a personal choice that suits you.
does 30 - 50% left mean you have used 50 -70% of 12.6 volts? or the differential between 11.4 and 12.6?
thanks!
I built a mini cub took me ages to get the right motor battery setup, had loads of crashes until I got the right combo. Still not an easy plane to get in the air and land, but once its up there its fun. The full size version was better, once I got the teething problems sorted I could at least take off land it.i built a 90% cub, and the 1300 is perfect
Hi everyone I have a problem with my tricopter at can’t get it to take of its flips violently every time I try to flight, I sow slot of video on YouTube I sheqrchzd on goggle but no luck
Kk2.1.5 turnigy plush sunysky motors 1240kv
I tryed changing the board and motors and still the same problem anyone can help please? Thank you
Mind you I did for get to mention. I replaced the original motor in the Cub with a Sunnysky x2216 1250kv and a 9x5 prop. The original Emax CF2822 1200kv I used, didn't have enough punch. Its a great combination now and once in the air it cruises around great and still has plenty in reserve for loops and stiff headwinds.i built a 90% cub, and the 1300 is perfect
Hey thank you for replaying. Actually I did start a thread but no one answered me yet.. I checked the rotation many Times still no luckYou should start your own thread, but IME when any multirotor flops, you dont have the right rotation on one or more motors. The board is trying to control the motor speed for stability and if one or more motors are spinning in the wrong direction it will over correct in the wrong direction.
