If you running v1, I think there are some rounded packs made by "Peak Power" that are around 3300mah and have a decent C rating. I'm using a v2 and have found the 4200 Turnigy Nanotech shorties from Hobbyking very good. Cheap and the C rating is huge, compared to what you actually need.

Think of it this way, even with a 13t Hobbywing system, you're unlikely to ever need more than 35-40a power. Either battery is just the right amount of overkill. overkill.
