5000mah 25C minimum is recommended for the Savage Flux. I personally use 5000mah 30C or higher (40-50C is great). The higher the C rating the better as C rating determines the resistance of the lipo cell, and thus determines several other factors mainly the voltage under load of the pack for a given amperage, and the temperature the cells will come out at after the run. The higher C rated batteries are able to be charged at a higher C rate, but this can shorten the longevity of the pack so it's still generally a good idea to charge at the 1C charge rate you always have to ensure you get the most out of your packs.
