How long Iris+ 3DR Robotics 5100 mAh batterty can fly

Posted by Eddie Tun on January 31, 2015 at 11:05am

Hello,

I wonder how many minutes of flying times that those who own Iris+ with 3DR Robotics 5100mAh battery get. With fully charge I let it fly and stay at the same spot to check the duration of the battery with fail safe set battery voltage at 10.8vlts it just last for 8-9 minutes and it return to landing. I was told to set fail safe at the battery voltage 10.8vlts. I like to get more fly time and safe, what should I do. Is my battery wrong or setting to fail safe is wrong. Please let me know how many maximum minutes you gentleman got and how you did it.

Thanks

Eddie

      Thanks MP.

      I'm going to try at 10.3 and test it.  Do I need to discharge the battery and recharge it back. Do you know what the minim volts require to make Iris+ fly in the air. Because I just thinking the full charge of 11.5 volts of batteries just can use 1.5 volts for 8 minutes of flying. Do you think it can fly at 8,5 volts. I'm thinking to set failsafe at 8.5 at RTL.

      Thank you.
