I've found my average max current draw to be ~78A. So if the votlage drop of either pack was less than that of the MaxAmps packs would be a great advantage - the 5S packs with either cell is only aout 25grams heavier than the MaxAmps 4S packs.
For your setup the 25c 3900 5s pack looks good, it has enough cont rating and will have longer runtimes than the 3300 30c pack. Plus I read that the 30c cells were not as good as the 25c cells. Not sure if it was all of the 30c cells though...

I am sure that you will see that the Neu will hold voltage better than the maxamps pack.
