2. 4 rcx 700kv motors
3.apm 2.6 with GPS
4. 4 40amp simonk esc. Didn't have to use 40 but I wanted to be sure I was good.

Hi mate go for a 3 cell 5200mah multistar lipo they are light for the size

Your motors can work up to 6 cell but your need to step down volts to FCB if it cant run 22v

Thanks for the reply. How much flight time u think I can get with the multistar 5200? Also I see this battery is only 10c am I going to be OK with that? No heating up problems or puffing up? Thanks for the reply going to order tonight

HI mate you dont need a very high C rate on quads but it is a 20c burst I would hope your get about 25 mins plus run it through ecalc.com, If you want a high C then this will work
