i haven't used it that much cause both of my trucks are programmed for 2s right now. and even when i do run my batteries i only use 1 pack per course. so i never look to see how long one pack runs for. i know on my axial i use anywhere from 150-250mah to complete 1 course. i have messed around with the bully quite a bit on the rhino 1050mah 2s and it runs for a good 20 min or so. so i would guess close to that. i never time them

I have the same esc, which comes with the rtr, and i run a 2200mah 30c 3s lipo in mine... Make sure you get a lipo cutoff though, because it doesn't have one.
