Minutes of hover from battery capacity in mAh and average current in mA.
| Minutes | – |
Use this calculator to sketch hover endurance from pack capacity and average draw. Enter milliamp-hours and milliamperes (18 A is 18000 mA).
Minutes = 60 × mAh / mA. 4500 mAh at 18 A is 15 minutes. Wind, payload, and not emptying the pack cut that. Same ratio as a simple battery-life estimate, reported in minutes.
mAh: Pack capacity.
mA: Average current in milliamperes.
Minutes: Estimated hover time.
