The "c" rating is how many amps the battery is capable of putting out, and is based on the capacity. A 30C battery can put out 30 times its capacity (in amp-hours). Example: A 30c 2200 mah pack (2.2 amp-hours) could put out 66 amps (30 x 2.2). But a 30c 1000 mah pack could only put out 30 amps.

You want to buy a pack that can provide the maximum current your motor can draw without exceeding its continuous c-rating. In fact, you should choose one that will do it without exceeding half its continuous c-rating. This will assure long life from the pack and sufficient power to your motor. That advice applies no matter what kind of flying you do.

thanks but some lipo dont really indicate wat c-rating....so how to be safe?i mean if i can avoid my pack and motor gettin fried...

If a lipo does not indicate the c-rating, don't buy it. That is "must know" information and should be available for any pack worth buying.
