Default RE: GP 1/4 scale Piper Cub Conversion?

Thank you for your reply. I was considering 2 Kokam 5 cell, 18.5 v 2000 mAh packs from Hobby Lobby.
I was planning on wiring them in parallel. they are rated at 15C which I believe gives a 60amp discharge in parallel.
4000 mAh for the two pack configuration. I believe the packs sre $169 a piece. Does this sound like a pack configuration
that will work for this application? I am not sure if 4000 mAh will give me adequate flight times, 6-10 minutes perhaps?
I believe 3 of these packs in parallel would be closer to my preference, but thet sure add up quick! $$$$ [X(]



Thanks for your comments!
