Guys new to this hobby . I have built my quad 450 with 30a esc and 1400:/ motors can any one suggest the right battery to be used
 
Sure, no problem. Just keep in mind that the higher the mah, the heavier the battery and the more sluggish your quad will handle. Heck, you could probably go right up to 5000mah if you wanted, you'd just have calculate how much current your motors are going to pull to make sure your ESCs can handle it. Here's a link to a very handy tool. Just enter your setup or setup you want to try and it'll calculate if it will actually work and the results like flight time, etc.

Hi a 450 quad with 1000kv motors will fly for 10 to 13 mins on a 2200 3 cell , if you look at multistar batteries you can get a higher MAH which will not weigh much more than a standard 2200, I would my self look at a 4000 mah 3 cell or a 3500 to 3800 3 cell
 
I have a Tarot 650 with two 10000 mah lipos configured for 6s. Flies very well as I mounted the batteries next to the main platform and with retractable gear its pretty sweet. Not to mention flight times. At 6s Im still at just 10000mah but so far its been great.
 
Hello guys this forum is really cool I got answers for my many questions how ever I have one more left ...I have used a2212/10t 1400kv motor and 30 amp esc for my quad ...and each motors will take a maximum current of 20a at full throttle so it takes total current of 90 amps for all of my motors..Ian thinking to use 3s 5200mah 40c lipo battery and it supplies 204 amp continuously so will this work out well or well this be a problem to esc and motor ....Thanks in advance
 
I have a smaller 1500mAh battery for my Tri for when I want some zippy performance and a 2800 mAh for cruising around. Either way you need more that just one battery.
