JB, Thanks. I have a Thunder Power charger and balancer, just ordered the Zippy's -H 3300 packs. Now I just need to get my thumbs back in shape

Yes . . they will be great (although I pretty much only use 4000mAh packs - but 5S). Do about a 5 minute flight and see what you put back in, then do your calculations to fly only about 2000mAh from the pack per flight. Set your Transmitter timer if you have one.
I have found that flying 'deeper' into the pack than say 2/3 capacity is when the pack starts to get NOTICABLY hotter, and my experience has been 'heat is the enemy' in electric stuff. Flying 1/2 to 2/3 of the capacity from my ZIPPY H packs results in the packs landing only slightly warm even on hot days (30degC plus).
Have fun . . great plane choice ;-)
Cheers, JB
