It depends on what brand lipo's your looking at and what motor and esc you plan to run.

Kinda like the other thread where you asked similar questions
if your not going to buy 4s packs like you said already because you don't want to spend the money then by the 2s packs like you stated in another thread
two 2s 40c 5000mah packs are plenty for one run, but you will want more as these boats are a kick in the pants to play with!

ok i was looking at prices on tower and rc planet and amain and stormers last night and 4s is anywhere from 150 up to 200 a piece thats why i was think 2s i can even get 2s 7000 mah 40c for 100 bucks each but i dont want 2 but 2s and hate then say i should of just got 4s

Go to hobbypartz.com and look at the gens ace batteries they have. Or, go to hobbyking.com and look at there turnigy or zippy batteries. If you order from hobbyking, make sure you order from the USA warehouse. I like gens ace the best but I have owned the other two brand batteries too.

[dmwilson09]

Let's say you get 2 5000 mAh 4s batteries vs 2 5000 mAh 2s batteries. All this will do for you is allow to have a longer run time IF you run the two batteries parallel in the boat. I would just get 2 or 4 2s batteries and call it a day.

Get 2x 2s 5300 mah 30c Gens Ace packs from hobbypartz.com or get 4x 2s packs.

[arp1500]

can the boat fit 4 2s packs

can the boat fit 4 2s packs

I mentioned 4x 2s packs so you can run for a few minutes and then bring it in to cool and have another set of batteries ready to go.

Get 2x 2s 5300 mah 30c Gens Ace packs from hobbypartz.com or get 4x 2s packs.

Gens Ace are great packs and cheap priced!!

ok thanks guys ill look into the gens ace, i think i made my mind up after i looked at my charger and it only charges up to 3 cell i guess ill be going with a high mah 2s unless i buy a new charger this on is 6 years old

[d.a.v.e]

I bought a new charger to handle the 4c's better and have not regretted it.. Something else to consider is a charger that will do two batt's at once as you may be there for a while charging 4 or more batt's between runs..
