V450D03 battery options..

[oxide1]

Hi everyone!
firstly, i'd just like to say that i wish the mods would make a separate V450D03 forum!!! it would make info sooo much easier to find!
Second; was wondering what batteries people are using for this bird and what people think are the best!!!
I was shipped a storm 11.1v 2200mah 20c when i bought my v450... but i've bought storm batteries before for my v120d02s v2 and was less than impressed... so i figure that there must be a better option!
Have been weighing up these 3...

Anyone using these? Will the extra c rating on the last one really give me that much more pop? Have also been considering Gens ace 3s 2200 20c which are much more cost effective, and SEEM to have a reasonable reputation.... but really trying to go for quality here...
Thoughts?

The extra C rating will give you more pop. I've been really happy with the Glacier lipos from BuddyRC.com. They're conservatively rated at 30C. Some packs are over rated like Turnigy. If you buy those, go for 45C or higher. 20C is pretty low if you are doing any flipping or really and pitch pump requiring movements. I've never used GensAce, but have heard good things about them. The Pulse are also really good, but more expensive.

It all depends on your style of flying. If you're just tooling around in forward flight, 20C is adequate. If you are pushing it at all, you need 30C or higher and a decent battery.

+1 on the Glacier 30C. I am running the 2600s and they work well and fit perfectly.
