Most likely the 5x2200mAh, but it depends on whether you want all that 11Amps provided over an hour or whether you'd prefer 66Amps in 10 minutes.
If you look at the LiPo batteries for sale, you'll see them advertise a "C" rating for discharge and possibly another "C" rating for charging. Those have to do with how fast the battery can provide current and how fast it can be charged. Some batteries just can't pump out current as fast as others. They all should be able to provide the label rating, say 11,000mAh over the course of the hour, but the "C" rating will determine if they can provide that same energy in shorter bursts. Batteries that can't will exhibit a large drop in voltage which ESCs will take as meaning that the battery is depleted. Also batteries may overheat or puff if they are discharged faster than rated.
Here's an example you can Google to see the ratings: Turnigy nano-tech 3000mah 4S 25~50C Lipo Pack
Capacity: 3000mAh
Voltage: 4S1P / 4 Cell / 14.8V
Discharge: 25C Constant / 50C Burst
Weight: 299g (including wire, plug & case)
Dimensions: 150x45x24mm
(Of course, the wires used to connect the battery to the device drawing the current also need to be able to handle the current and heat). |
