about 10 min but both battery's went bad after 1 month and they would not warranty just the battery's had to send back the the whole dji

These give me 16-18 minutes fly time:E-Flite LiPo Battery 3.7V 500mAh 1S 25C EFLB5001S25

In safe mode during my learning period, I was getting at least 15 to 20 minutes. As you become a better pilot and fly more aggressively the time will drop considerately.

I think there are plenty of answers regarding stock setup (7-9 minutes depending on flight style). My experience with the stock phantom 1 (FC40) with 3D printed (lighter than bought) prop guards, 3D printed landing gear risers, a generic brushless gimbal with GoPro Hero3+ and a FatShark Predator v2 Camera+transmitter, I get around 4 minutes of actual flight time, this is about half hovering and half quick maneuvers, etc. I also tried doing dual battery, and it bumps up to about 7 minutes. I have 6 of these batteries and an IMAX B6 charger with a NEEWER XT60 Parallel Balance Charging Plate, which will charge 6 batteries from dead to full in about 2 hours.

As stated below, 6 AA's. The actual flying car charges via a cord attached to the controller, the battery is internal. So you need nothing for the actual car itself. Takes about 20 mins (in my experience) to charge. Fresh batteries make that happen quicker. Flying/driving time seems to be about 8-12 mins. Hope this helps.

the initial charge might take over an hour, but usually shorter, after initial charge....will depend on how long you fly it, and run battery down!

on a 45 to 50 minute charge you can fly the copter 15 to 20 minutes depending on how many different manuevers you make.

Dan is pretty much correct in the time it takes to charge with the stock USB charger. But for the RUN time, it depends on how aggressively/conservatively it's flown. I tend to get between 5 and 8 minutes of flight time before the LEDs blink to warn of low battery voltage and the impending LVC. If you upgrade the transmitter to a spare X4 (version 2) transmitter (see my answer to the 2.4GHz interference and novice flying question), you'll have the ability to switch the LEDs off (and on again) to extend flight time even more (at the expense of being able to maintain orientation in all but the brightest of flight environments, since this vehicle is so small).

The battery lasts about 10 minutes depending on how you fly. Hovering takes a lot less power than hammering the throttle. I have gotten more time by getting it in the air for photos and moving it slowly. As far as distance, you can fly it until you almost can't see it so you won't have a problem with distance.

it depends on the quad copter. The Phantom 1 gets about 10 - 15i minutes of flight while the Phantom 2 can get up to 25 minutes.

mine is about 3.5 hrs. I just used it on a five hour flight and it lasted about 3.5 hrs

Not that I noticed. It flies alright. The issue is the flight time. 2-3 minutes top?

In terms of duration of flight - about the same, provided appropriate charging sequence is followed.

About 10 minutes on a stock battery. A larger battery would add weight hampering its flight ability. Just get a few batteries.

I don't know an exact time, but it's fairly quick. If I were to guess I'd say 6 or less.

This battery is an average battery. Depending on your flying habits you can get about 10 minutes flying time. I don't like to fly it constant from the time I take off until it's dead. I like to land every once in a while to allow the motor to cool a little. So by doing that, I can get close to 15 minutes total including down time. I imagine each battery is a little different as to how much actual time each battery will last. That's why I have more than one battery. It makes the trip to the park last longer

From the remote about 55 mins from the included usb charger about 35-40 mins.... Both still give you 7 and a half 8 minute flight times
