those batteries are $1.25 each [X(]
multiplied by 9 per pack .. hold on a sec using fingers and toes now..
thats $11.25 per pack excluding the time and energy to make the pack and the Plug to connect it and you will get roughly 4 mins of flight MAX [&o],
but you did say you would Us the Glide effect so in effect you would stay airbourne longer with good throttle management

my advice would be dont over invest in this Battery Chemistry because very soon i can see you going Lipo and Brushless soon

below is a link the voltage Curve for Applied Load and its NOT Good [&o]
my second bit of advice would be try one pack and evaluate it first then build a second and see if it performs as well as the first and take if from there

remember the comparisons are between a 750 ma and a 600 ma !!
there is Bound to be a Short Fall on the Best 600ma as a Comparison to a 750 ma battery Anyway [&:]

a more realistic view is a 9 cell pack made from CBP750AA's would privide about 9.45 volts after the first 20 seconds and reducing all the time,
when i was using NiMh the first 60 seconds was Brill but then its a downward slope to landing [&o]
thats why i suggest one Pack first

hope this helps
