I was sent a 2800mAh battery from Dinogy Lipo. this was there replacement upgrade for the Phantom 1 the item is their 2800mAh 3S 25C http://dinogylipos.com/3s-lipos/147-2800mah-3s-25c-dji It came out very well with my testing reaching the 18 minute mark. Keep in mind this was done with very little movement. I would take the phantom up around 100 ft and slowly move it back and forth waiting for my buzzer to sound. Once the red lights were flashing I stayed within a foot or two of the ground waiting for it to land. The only added items were prop guards. In the real world you will not get these times unless you don't want to have any fun lol still it was so much more than the stock battery and it looks to be well manufactured. The difference between this and the SMC was basically the wire they used. The SMC was a heavier gauge which was a slight bit harder to pack inside the unmodified battery door. The Dinogy battery was very flexible which was easy to bend. I still recommend getting the larger battery door or do as I have and just drill two holes in the front and use a dermel to elongate them. This will allow you to make your connections outside the door. You can always push the wires back inside a little after, this way you will not be putting stress on the door or worrying about it popping open while flying.

Ok the weather was good tonight so while I was in the mood for testing I decided to give the 2800 Dinogy Lipo another test. I will put some photos up so you can see what it was tested on. Basically I took my Phantom 1 which had on the following equipment: Tarot Gimbal Fatshark 600mw Transmitter Gopro Hero 3+ Black Small Gps Tracker 1oz. Voltage Buzzer Dinogy 2800mAh Li-Po http://dinogylipos.com/3s-lipos/147-2800mah-3s-25c-dji It was flown at normal speeds so this is a real world test. The flight time was 11:02 I brought it back at 3.7v and stayed around my home. When the first red lights started flashing I brought it to about 2 feet over the ground. At 11:02 it landed on its own. I was very happy with this time, especially with all the extras that are on it. Hope this gives everyone a better idea of what times they would get.
