Why not two 5000mAh?

And a nice 5S pack with the ccneu motor would be too expensive for me...

Well add tx and shipping (and probably duties since I'm in Canada) and you quickly get to 200$... :-)

Well, I was suggesting the smaller Mah packs because they are cheaper and still don't know if your have a single or dual battery setup ?
2-5s 3000mah would be 6000mah wired is paraellel.You should yeild a 30-40 minute runtime
The 5000mah in twins would weigh a ton.

First, I did not notice you were form Canada so you are correct on the $200-.

If you are running 2 batts. in parallel, you could get, as mentioned above, 2 5s 3000 mah for a 5s 6k set up. One advantage is that the lower mah. batts. are cheaper than say a 5k batt.
