Ralph is gone until Monday , but i use 1650 Nimh batts 4.8 volt in all my ignition motors. You could get by with a 1000 or 1200 mah pack also but the 1650 will last 8 or 9 good 15 minute flights.

Actually if it's one of Ralphs and not a C&H, a 1000 ma will last at least 8 or 9 flights. Any size 4.8 battery larger than 500ma will work.
Check with Ralph to make sure it's one of his. He has used a few of the C&H for his conversions.

You can fly one of Ralphs ignitions on a 500mah battery for 2 hours.

I wouldn't use less than an 800mah--just for that little thing I like to call "Safety Factor".[8D]

Slap a 1000mah battery on it and fly it.
