Thanks for the info, Tim. the battery info was really giving me problems. I was really drowning in battery infomation[img][/img]. So a 4000mah 6s 22.2v 30C Lipo, should work.
That should work well. A conservative 10C draw (@40 amps) at 22.2 volts would provide nearly 900 watts. Evidently, according to some specs I read, your plane will weigh closer to 6 lbs., so that is plenty of power, and your motor will be just coasting. You have a lot of flexibility, and your final setup will be dictated by your desired flight performance.
