Default A question on LiPo cell packs.

Here is one for you.
I am building an electric powered Hangar 9 Aresti. I am using an AXI 4120/18, Jetti controller and 3 X 5S 1500Mah Kokam LiPo cells.
I built up the 5S packs myself from individual cells and was going to put shrink tube around them to hold the packs together like
the packs you get from vendors. My question is, should I place some kind of spacer between each cell in the packs to allow air to
circulate between them to cool them? If so, any suggestions what material to use and what thickness?
Thanks for your help.
