life expectancy of the Li-ion 7.4 battery

Post by smokywave »

can anybody say what the life expectancy of the Li-ion 7.4 battery supplied with the Heng long tanks is.
Right now been running my P3 with my great grand granddaughter and noticed it’s shutting down and needing restarting every couple of mins. Usually last at least 30 to 40 mins but haven’t run it in close to a year. OR could it be the 6 AAs are running down in the controller.?

On standard HL batteries, one hour of driving is standard time. Heng Long batteries are poor quality and in my tanks go straight to the trash because I replace them with Li-Po. But if you want to stay with Li-Ion, buy one with a larger capacity.
