<DIV>Larry,</DIV>
<DIV>You are using a lot less than me.</DIV>
<DIV>I fly slow. Intermediate sequence takes about 7 minutes.</DIV>
<DIV>Hacker A60-7S with Falcon 21x14 used about 3500mah.</DIV>
<DIV>I still need to slow down a little more. Currently tthrottle has been set to maximum of 90 percent. Large & tall manuevers.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>If your Monolog flys the way you want it as is, don't do anything to it especially prop. On windy day I may change the prop on mine, but it already has more than enough speed. </DIV>
<DIV>Throttle management & landing is what I need to learn more.</DIV>
