I was sent a battery from Banggood.com to test in my Phantom 1 with the following equipment, extended landing gear, a Gopro camera, gps tracker, and the fatshark fpv transmitter and camera. In the past my flying time was limited to just over 6 minutes. I was hoping I would get more time from a 2700mAh so I charged it up and put it inside the Phantom. It was tight, but went in just fine. I think you will need either the oversized battery door, or do what I did and drill two holes and then elongated them so the connectors could come through. I like being able to just plug things in and not worry that the door is going to pop open. Anyhow, I took it up for a flight around the same area I have in the past and decided to bring it back around 7 minutes so I could watch for the lights. !0 minutes passed and only when I made a fast move did I see the red light flash. If I had gone more casual I think I could have extended it even more. But I was more than happy with 10 minutes of flying. So for under $24 and free shipping you surely cant go wrong.
