It might be tough to find 5s Lipo (total) that will give 30mins. of runtime for $200.

From Maxamps, you can buy a 2s 6000mah pack for $80 and a 3s 6000mah for $120. That's $200, and probably the highest capacity you'll get for that price for a pack with the right size. You could put the 2s on the same side as the motor, and the 3s on the opposite side from the motor for good weight balance.
I'll keep my eyes peeled for other packs, but you may want to consider this option.
