Think ima just say the heck with 5s and run it on a fat 4s pack,..seems to be the way to go with a 2200 combo anyways,plus it will live longer.Then scoop up an 1800 later and convert that Mutilator into the Defacator !

What do i need to know about the batterys? sorry i am fairly new to the electric thing. but am learning as we speak (reading tooo many posts)

Sorry, I thought it was simply a typo and was giving you a bit of crap. "C" refers to the amount of current a pack can deliver and a multiplier of the capacity. So, a 15C 5000mAh battery can deliver 75A (15 X 5000mAh). When we talk about the number of series cells, we use "S". You were talking about a 4S pack. Incidentally, some packs also have a "P" value, which is the number of parallel cells. Like in 5s2p has a total of 10 cells, 5 series connected sets of 2 parallel cells.

No offense man, just some harmless fun.
