suggest you to use more c rating batteries i.e. 45 - 90C.

The difference is >100g actually based on actual weighing.

The 3S 5200's are only 331g each.

The 5200's are really overkill for the 4500 TB47 as well.

I have two TP LiHV 3S 4500mah on order. They charge to 4.35V and are only 241g each. Should be s nice match with my newly modified TB47.

Any news on those TP LiHV s ?

Higher C rated batteries are heavier and not needed at all. DJI batteries only use 10-20C, not more. The lower, the better.

I can't get more then 15 min flights out of new t48's. Too short to really due any video making a couple of 360's around a point. Also the app. Kills a fully charged iPhone 6 Plus in 45 minutes! Does it do the same with tablets?

Hi, no I am using an iPad air 2 and it lasts long long time. Never measured exactly how long but I guess more then 4-5 hours

Adelberg aerial imaging · Dec 10, 2015

Ok thanks for the info. Guess I need a tablet which would make things bigger and easier to use anyway. Now if I can only get this latest firmware to take to te AC ! It took to all the batteries which were put in AC but app is still shows AC need update?

Alessandro beccaria · Dec 10, 2015

I guess you are referring to the inspire pro upgrade. Correct ?
I have a similar issue but the new firmware is actually updated. there is a generated text file written on the SD card next to the bin file used for the upgrade which states firmware number and wether it is success, aborted or failed. mine shows success although in the app it still shows the older software and requires an upgrade.
but this is a little off the main topic of this thread !

I had to reformat the card to clear everything out. Then after I extracted the file I was dragging that extracted file to the card! So this last time instead of dragging the extracted bin file I dragged the file that said inspire 1 pro firmware which was basically labeled the same as the zip file but was the unzipped file. That took to the AC! But the extracted file from the zip file would not take

The whole thing is quirky like some sd cards won't format.

Ok, my first try ! 27 mins, down to 10%. So 30 mins possible. It was very cold, only 3 degrees C, and windy. So in better weather I guess 30 mins +. Main battery very cool when landed as you can see. Normally its at 50 degrees.

Adelberg aerial imaging · Dec 10, 2015

Wow that sure beats the 15 min I get from mine before I get to 10%! Which auxillery bats are you using?
