I'd go with the 15C packs. You could get away with 10C's, but since their constant discharge rate is lower they're going to heat up more than 15C's when they're used. We know Li-Po's don't like heat. The way I see it the cooler they run the longer they last. I recommend a pack like [link=http://www.helidirect.com/product_info.php?cPath=31&products_id=1821]this one[/link].

Good Luck!

good deal,thanks for the link.I dont wanna spend alot of $ on this heli since I bought it for the matter of learning and will move on to a glow heli in the future.It is a little hard to learn something though when you get yourself oriented on the first flight and then the power is gone.What would be a cheap way of charging theese packs.preferably an ac charger.Thank you
