I went flying yesterday for 45 minutes shooting approaches with the a/p..very nice by the way...

I figured I could finally complete the battery test, but again it said I didn't have enough of a charge on the battery..showed 11.5v.

Is there something else I need to know or fly around much longer that 45 min.

thanks,

From a discharged state, the battery can take 4 hours to fully charge, so 11.5V after 45 minutes sounds about right.

With your engine running, it's worth going into SETUP->LOCAL SCREEN->DISPLAY HARDWARE INFO and see the charging state of the battery to make sure it thinks it's charging, and also to verify that the voltage is going up over time.
