Ok I have a rotofly. I would like to get some more flight time. Would an 800mah be that much better than a 600mah? The charger that came with the rotofly charges at 500mah. The 800mah lipo from helimax is 6 or 7 bucks cheaper than the 600. and there is only a few gram difference in weight. Is it ok to use the same 500mah charger on the 800mah lipo?

Is the stock battery a lipo? If not, you will need a lipo specific charger. DO NOT CHARGE A LIPO WITH A NON-LIPO CHARGER.

The 800 should give you about 1/3 longer flight times than the 600.

One part is weight, the other is size. Make sure the other lipo isn't too big in some dimention to make it not fit.
