just looking for runtime here on my 1700kv truggy motor. been running 5s for now, weight doesnt matter, ist only for bashing
doesnt a 30c 6s compares to a 40c 5s?

Well a 6s and 5s are completely different to start off...
But if you are comparing 2 6s packs of different MAH and C rating, a few things to look for. Quality of the packs. Do a search and see which brands seem to be most prevalent and successful.
Next, compare the Amp outputs of the 2 packs. The 5800 30c pack is capable of 174 amps of continuous output if the pack is a true 30C pack.The 5000 40C is capable of 200 amps of continuous discharge if the pack is a true 40C.
Now if you are trying to compare runtimes between a 5s and 6s pack on the same motor geared for the same speed, the 6s pack should be able to achieve the same runtime as the 5s pack while using slightly less MAH due to the increase efficiency of the system.
