2.28: How long do the batteries last?

Airships – Twin and Tri Turbofan models:
•This depends on how often you use the thrusters, if you use them continuously then about 4 hours. Typical battery life is about one week of daily usage for 1 - 2 hours. However, if you pulse them like you would a jet pack in space then they will last much longer. The 9-volt battery in the transmitter is good for many hours - 24 hours or more.

When you are done flying your Tri-Turbofan airship, turn the power switch to the off position, and remove the 3V lithium battery - This will lighten the weight of the gondola and the airship can be safely tethered or stored "stuck" on the ceiling.
