It might be possible. I get around 20 minutes on 4s 5Ah on a similar kv 1512 motor in my Hyper 8. That equates to ~15A average draw, or 222w average power. On 3s, that same power level requires 20A average current, which should get you 15 minutes on the button. Again, calculating runtime is NOT an exact science, so lacking a setup to try, the best you can do is compare against other similar setups and guess as close as you can.
