Default opinions please

I am converting a glow kit to electric and need some input on battery selection. The airplane has a 52 inch wing, 497 squares, semi-symetrical airfoil. I am wanting to use a geared Astro-Cobalt 025 that I have available. Looking for mildly aerobatic performance, nothing unlimited. What kind of weight should I shoot for and what battery size/cell count would be a good place to start? I'm an electric newbie so go easy on me. Thanks, Chad.
