[QUOTE="digitalmouse, post: 94973, member: 11891"] I think tinkering with the Intelligent Battery on the Spark is probably not a great idea anyway. There is 'battery management' circuitry (and some software) designed for the stock battery to get the most out of it. If you start strapping on bigger value batteries, that stuff will no longer be accurate, and you would - at the very least - be forced to do your own time tracking for flight time. Which would be nigh impossible to do without load data on the battery in real time when fighting wind or not, running in sport mode or not, and so on. I suspect the only safe way to improve flight times is to transplant the hardware onto a naked carbon-fiber frame to get it as light as possible. Naturally any warranty goes out the window, so 'your mileage may vary'. :D [/QUOTE]
