change your blades to the ones I provided in the link and you will see what I am talking about. When I said 25 minutes I meant it in the same way all guys do, longer is always better. Truth is it's probably closer to 20 minute flight after upgrading the props.

I have already completed the battery mod with the removed smart board and added the jst cable for balance. its just that the smart board reads that the battery is only 50% when it is actually 100% charged.

Found this Procedure but not if this will do what I need it to do: Steps to Power-On: 1. Power-On the Remote Control 2. Connect the LiPo balance cable 3. Power-On the Smart Battery board 4. Connect the Lipo XT60 5. Wait for GPS Fix and flight! Steps to Reset the Smart Battery board: 1. Push...
