Default RE:

The only downside to a higher C rating is some added weight.  The C rating has nothing to do with flight time.  The prop and motor will try to draw all they need.  If they can't get it, then some of the power is lost in heat.  If they can get it, then the power will go to the prop.  More is better and more is also heavier.
