Thanks, It was my longest distance flight. But deafly wasn’t my smoothies flight. I started my screen recording but at the end of the flight there was no video, I almost crash in to a antenna tower and my stock battery at a bad cell [emoji52]

What about endurance? Would it count if I post my total flight distance, then just divide by 2, or does this leaderboards have to be one direction out and back?
Just a curiosity question, cause I have no desire to fly in one direction for 4 miles.

Did u read thread title? clearly states in the 1st few post what we are doing here. u can start a new 1 about flying around in circles as long as you can if u desire but this one is pretty direct about what we are doing .

Yeah I guess the 2 externals batteries made up up for the stock battery failing cell. I’m actually a little pissed that I didn’t push it out another 400 feet to pass **Mick** flight distance.
It's pretty weak of you to not read a thread and jump in on page 137 or so to try an change it. I thought that I was nice considering
Trying not to get nudged off the bottom of stock leaderboard...23,085 feet with battery at 85 charges. Movin up to 15th. Mavic pro still impresses me. @JakeMaxxUAV

Nice flight, Are you sure your battery was it 85%? Your airdata photo shows your starting battery at 100%.
Thanks. Yes, took off at 100% battery. This battery has been charged 85 times. I always let them cool to room temp prior to charging and haven't seen any real loss over time.

Wow that battery is holding up really good. I’ve had a couple batteries with less than 20 charges on them and they end up having a bad cell. With that said I am pretty hard my batteries[emoji38]
Not as pissed as I would've been lol, only joking. You did well there with that bad cell

Thanks man, My goal is to hit the distant limit with a full weight Mavic, no weight reduction. Still testing out different batteries combination and need to wait for this heat wave to end.

To be honest I really have not tested them in a really long distance flight. I’m a little leery of their low C rating, for no real reason. Lolo flies with them with great results but his MP is super light. I was thinking of doing a flight with one TP 4500 and one mult 5200. The weight is almost a denticle to the two 4600s(560g) I’m flying with currently.
I hit the limit recently without any weight reduction, but failed to make it home. I'm just waiting for a low wind day to try again with different batteries. To be fair I knew full well I wouldn't make it back as the Lihv multistar usually average 10k ft for every 10% of battery. I expected to finish around 2-3000ft short with flying on 0% for a short while. But for some reason on this return home the volts dropped faster than normal and I landed just under 15k ft short
