I know it depends on many factors, such as amp/hour, weight of model tank etc, but how much running time can one expect on something like a Tiger?
1 hour, 2 hours?

There are just too many variables I'm afraid.
Battery Ah, indoors/outdoors, flat/hilly, driving style, smoker on/off, sound volume, good maintenance of running gear/tracks.
I would hope to get at least an hour outside using 22Ah batteries, but I rarely use the smokers.

Hi Peet, I run a 24 V, 48 Ah LiFePo4 Accu in my Tiger 2 with steel tracks. Last time I charged the battery to 100 % and did 2 x 3 days and 1 x 2 days shows, cross country (Millitracks, Reichshof, ect), no smoker. After that battery was down to 67 %. Total runtime was aprox 2 h per day/event.
Hope that gives you an idea.
Cheers
Peter
