Calculations

10,000mA*h = 10A*h

TASK 1

Current: 6.93A at 50% thrust/motor, total current = 27.72A + 2A for electronics = 29.72A

10/29.72 *60min = 20.2min with a 6164g mass

TASK 2

Current: 3.76A at 40% thrust/motor, total current = 15.04A + 2A = 17.04A

10/17.04 * 60min = 35.2min with a 3984g mass
