I stumbled onto a gem today working on extended flight on my Lite Foot project. I think it is relevant here, and I also think it might prove to be the serious no-nonsense method to facilitate extended flight on the P3.
If you run power leads direct from battery to ESC board input (you need a way to turn the power off when not using IE: connector, switch) in parallel with the battery manager, the battery manager becomes a voltage only monitor. The percentage will probably not get any lower than 60, or so, but the voltage will go all the way to 3.33 then do a force landing (if you don't land)
I would consider this only for the highly skilled pilots, and I think this is what they would actually want.. Watch the **** voltage. That stupid percentage is, well, stupid.
I stumbled on this tracing symptoms of voltage drop that really shows when these birds get loaded with their added batteries. The battery manager, I think wasn't designed to carry so many amps, So I gave it a little help, and voila!
Anyway enjoy. I will be posting more w/pictures as I finish off extended flight on Light Foot.
