Which batteries for the 500x

[Shep0479]

Hi guys, I'm really getting to grips with my 500X but only have two stock eflite packs.
What are people using (looking for a mid range lipo in terms of price). I could connect my 2200 3s's together but would rather have a 2900mah or higher (weight depending).
What C rating are people using? I'm just starting to get into 3d flying.

I used to fly my old Gaui 425 (500 size) on turnigy 3000MAH 6s packs. they don't cost very much and they performed brilliantly. TBH any 2500-3000 6s pack would do the trick. Don't be too concerned with high C ratings either.
