20C is unnecessary IMO. If you get a pack that can handle about 45amps continuous with 80amps burst then that should be adequate. A 6000mah 8C pack is rated to deliver 48amps continuously (for example), and would give better runtime than a 4000mah pack. Unless you are extremely worried about weight, I wouldn't even get a 20C pack. You pay a lot extra for them, and 10C-15C packs are plenty...
