Before I start here are my specs
Hobbyking Pixhawk
RCTimer 30A opto ESC's
RCTimer 530kv motors
RCTimer power module
RCTimer 800 extension arms
RCTimer 450 Spider Frame
RCtimer 14x5.5 CF, 10x4.5 apc, 12x4.5 apc props
Zippy 5000mah 4s 30c batteryDrone weight. 2300kgs
Height = 4500 feet ASL
Average hover time in ALTHOLD mode = Less than 3 minutes at 47% throttle, 80 percent rule.This is the same with 10x4.5 as well as 12x4.5 APC props as recommended by the manufacturer website. Obviously the throttle settings for the props varies but the flight time and AMP draw varies by about 5 amps
Is there anything I can do to increase my flight time...Im sure I must be able to get better performance out of my machine than that
