I
think I get about 15mins (I haven't time it), and that's with a 7XL geared for approximately 40mph. Also, I have my own "slipperential" on the Revo, so that helps to reduce energy consumption.

I've been tryig to "race practice" as much as I can at times bashing, such as taking corners, controlled braking, and practicing what good jumps I can find.
I looks like the truck is a bit nose heavy, so trying to train my finger not to panic brake mid-air when the nose starts falling is a much needed event. Had some really ugly landings the other day. Finger thinks that the brakes can stop the truck in the air when things start to go bad... yeah, not so good. Lighter batts would even the weight out, but see points 1-2.

Practice, practice, practice! If you want to be able to take jumps well, I suggest some larger jumps, where you have more airtime to get the feel of the throttle in relation to the angle the truck is at.
