Aeronavics / Droidworx 5S vs 6S

[cbpagent72]

Due the great sprng clearance prices I now have a Droidworx Skyjib 6 on the way and I am curious what you guys recommend in the way of batteries? I plan on running two packs in parallel and I will be using T-Motors MN4014 330KV motors and 65 amp ESCs. Do you guys recommend running dual 5S or 6S batteries and what C rating? I will be hauling a Defy g5 or g2 gimbal with a GH3. Thanks.

I am hearing that running dual 8000mAh 6s lipos is a pretty good route to go.

Just to put some closure to this thread I started, I ended up buying four MaxAmps 8000mAh 6S 150C dual core battery packs with EC5 connectors, I would have gotten the XT90 connectors but MaxAmps doesn't have them available. Their onsite description makes it sound like the 8000mAh packs with the dual core outperform their other packs. I was looking at the 9000mAh 6S 100C packs (they actually weight less) but I was sold by their marketing of the 8000mAh packs. Once I have my new SkyJib 6 Ti built and ready to fly I will report back on the performance of these packs.
