Lipo decision

[Bruiser]

Hey guys I am new to boats and brushless/Lipo scene. I recently purchased a boat from a member here and I would like some advice and recomendations on Lipo setup.The boat is a 37" Daytona cat with followg:
-(2) Turnigy 180 ESC's
-(2) FC 3740/ 2200kv Outrunners (PO listed them as 2200 but FC only lists a 2000KV ? )
-(2) FC CNC 445mm Props: L & R
Also if you could please include a brief explanation as to how or why a recomedation was made would be awesome as am trying to learn as much as I can. Any direction or advice is greatly appreciated.

I was thinking about 4s 5000mah 35c lipos for each ESC. Would this be a good choice?

I'd definitely go 4s on the set up you listed. I try to get the Highest C rating that I can afford.

Thanks for the reply. I chose that battery because I figured it to be at 175 amps and my ESCs are 180amps. Am I wrong in my thinking.

I'm not 100% sure how that works. I run 2p so two 5000mah 65c batts in parallel (4s & 5s), through my SK180 with a Neu 1515 1y (2200kv).

Phone batt is dying ill reply with more info

Hi,
Regular Turnigy 30c to 40c should be all you really need for sport running or for fun running.

Hears some reading info for you.
