Default LiPo's in parallel

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial; font-size: 14px; background-color: rgb(251, 252, 255); ">I have been searching for information on the limiting factors for wiring LiPo's in parallel, to no avail.</span><div style="font-family: Verdana, Arial; font-size: 14px; background-color: rgb(251, 252, 255); ">Basically, I want to wire up to four (4) same brand, type, capacitybatteriestogether in parallel for my Senior Telemaster.

I picked this setup because the combined weight allows me to get as much capacity as possible for the least weight addition.
Any recommendations on how to accomplish this?</div>
