I have a T-rex 6s 5000 that I could use for a test battery....
And I also found a 16/10 APC.
I was going to use a 2s Li-po and CC BEC but I want to try the lithium iron phosphate [link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXYAS8&P=0]LiFe[/link] 1800. The radio will be Futaba 10c 2.4 with 3152 servos....
I know people 'BEC' straight off the main pack . . but I use a Kokam 650mAh 2S LiPo Rx pack through a reg . . it is way overkill. I only use 21 / 22 mA per flight, and I have digitals all round (gotta love these EP powered planes).
With a 1800mAh pack, you will be able to fly for weeks without charging
