Hi there,
I am a newbie who just ordered an MG29. I'll run it stock, but have tonnes of questions regarding batteries and chargers. Here is what I want from my batteries:
-Cheap-ish (looking to order off HobbyKing.com)
-I really want long run times so lots of kids can have a turn
-Really really cool temperatures on the long runs
-Easy charging - If I can have them all on the same plugs that would be great (EC3, 5mm bullet, ect). This woul dbe nice but I will consider it a bonus.
I thought two of these might provide some great run times..

Turnigy nano-tech 10000mah 2S 40~80C Lipo Pack (TRA2854 Stampede/Rustler/Bandit compatible)
Capacity: 10000mAh
Voltage: 2S2P / 2 Cell / 7.4V
Discharge: 40C Constant / 80C Burst
Weight: 499g (including plug & case)
Dimensions: 137 x 41 x 43mm
Discharge Plug: TRX plug
Would 2 of those work well? Could I get 15 minutes? Would the run everything really cool? Would 3S or 4S run cooler? Temperature is a big priority.
Or would I be better off running 2S2P?
Would an IMAX B6 Charger work ok? Can it charge 2 batteries at once? Or 4 if I go 2S2P?
So many questions. This is gonna be FUN ! Thanks so much for your help. Jeremy
