Hey all new to the forum and new to all things rc as well,so hope I am posting in the right place. Just bought the Blackjack 29 v3 and have a few questions. I am running dynamite heavy duty reaction batteries. With the 2s 5000mah 50c I am only getting around 8 minutes of run time. I am not hammering the throttle every time but keeping the boat on plane and short burst of full throttle. On 3s I am getting about the same runtime, same running conditions and same battery spec 5000mah 50c. The boat is completely stock. Is this short of runtime normal? batteries have been charged and balanced 4 times since new on a Hitec X2 ac plus charger. Sorry for the long question just wanting to know what to do for longer runtimes or if that is about right, thank you all.
