I thought about giving this battery a 4 star rating simply because they don't have the "C" rating written anywhere on it nor do they tell us what it is in the description section. That withstanding, it's a good battery! I had a dozen of them and after 491 flights on 2 Micro Sticks, I've only had to retire one of them! You can expect to get at least 30 charges out of each battery and a flight time of around 10 minutes each flying the Micro Stik.
The worst battery I bought was from my LHS and since there might be an industry name blocker on this site (like many sites) in pig latin it was an "Ea Eit-flay" that I paid a whopping $12.99 for. It was a 3.7v 150 mah 12C battery and it lasted about 15 charges with about the same number of 10 minute flights on it.
I now fly a lot of "Ark-pay On-zay" airplanes with the coreless 8.5mm motors instead of the 7mm motors that come on the Micro Stik and I've even used this battery in a pinch for 5 minute flights. I only fly 5 minutes on the "PZ" T-28, Polecat and Sukhoi 26xp since they pull a lot more current, as do many of my other 8.5 mm motors.
All said, this is a great battery for the MIcro Stik and you should get even more flights than me with it if you set your timer to 8 minutes instead of the 10 to 11 minutes I flew with them.
Just remember, don't fly a battery until it's out of juice and the motor quits. Completely depleting it will ruin any Lipo battery. Even though this battery is capable giving you longer flights, land after 8 to 9 minutes and let the battery cool down before recharging. Also, let the motor cool down for about 5 minutes between flights too.
