From that amp draw it does look like a 5000 mah pack would do about 31 minutes. You would need to use about 107 watt hours to do 30 minutes. Personally I would like to have a little bit extra to make it safely (hitting LVC in the last couple of minutes is not fun) and to not stress the pack so much.They don't like having the last 15% or so taking out of them too often. Is there any of the 5400-5500mah packs that would fit? 6000 mah would be good, but is pretty heavy.

My old true rc 5s 8000mah pack (148 watt hours) with 1515 2.5d (1650kv) setup would do just over 30 minutes racing when the pack was new, but it lost its capacity fairly quickly once a few cells stopped holding voltage. I only got about 5 or 6 months from that pack, but it did do all of my racing and bashing for that time.

SMC has 9000mah 2s packs (4s would be 133 watt hours) http://www.specpointbatteries.com/in...p?productID=86 But 4s on that motor wouldn't be the best setup, and 6s 9000mah would be over kill.

i found this any good? much cheaper than maxamps
