Question: How long is the longest time period that you run your prerotator for before it pops the Bendix or you release it.
We need to know the battery capacity/life how minuets do you run a prerotator now to take off.
I need this for:
PRA Open Source Project is well on it way to developing a light weight electric state-of-the-art prerotator!

Our goals:
Push one button forget about it. Unless you flip the emergency shut-down switch or you turn it over near or on the ground; then it turns itself off, and the electrical and fuel system off on blade IMPACT.
Our goal is to rotate 30 foot blades to 200 RRM's then release the brakes while it still driving it during the flapping stage. If you drive it then; the blades will not flap ever? This safety feature is a bonus as you keep driving it up to 350 rotor RPM's for the shortest take-off we believe. Until testing is done we will not really know.
