What flight times are people getting with their KH250 builds? I'm getting 5 to 7 minutes.

What is your setup and battery size, that will have a lot to do with it. But 5-7 mins sounds about right

The KH250 build with the 2208 engines and 5x3 props.  Using a 3S 2200 mah battery with telemetry low voltage warning at I think 3.6V.  5 - 7 minutes may be reasonable, but it isn't satisfying and once I get a FPV setup it'll feel like I can't really go anywhere before i have to worry about coming back, so I'm looking at options.

Those motors will draw quite a bit of power. The battery may be a bit heavy too. I usually fly a 1800mah battery and when I go to 2200 I get no real increase in time. The small quads don't get really long flight times

What if I went to a 3S 4000 - 5000 mah flight pack.  Will 4 2208 motors manage that pack?

How much flight time do the big ones get?

[G+_Quadflyingmedic]

2200 is the biggest that these little quads can take. Dont think it will even be able to lift a Large battery like that

I have a tricopter with 10 inch props that can get 10-11 mins with a 3000mah battery, and a 450 quad that gets about 8-9 mins on the same battery. Gotta keep them light as possible
