Yea, I plan on going with 8000mah packs, maybe 12000 or 16000mah....I dunno about that yet, but what motor would you choose? A 1512, or 1515? I was kinda thinking about 4S just for the weight/size factor but...I'm not sure....

Yeah, runtime shouldn't be a problem then. :dft008:

I think a 1512 will work, but I'd go with a 1515 for the extra torque of the bigger motor. That's just me though - I tend to overengineer stuff...

With a single battery on the right side, I would think that anything over 8000mah would be too tall and heavy.

Thats why I was thinking of 4S2P 8000mah instead of 5S. My 3S2P pack looks right at home in there. It can be a decent bit taller without problems...I was also thinking of going with 2 packs so I can run them in something else.
