I have been using a 4s 16Ah batter for over a year now that has worked out well for me.

It can easily charge 2 f1s all day with as much practice as the schedule allows. A 3rd car would push the limit.

The 5.8Ah battery you linked to would be ok to power 1 low draw car such as a mini or F1.

I have a 3 5Ah packs you can try sunday to get a better idea of how much capacity you will need.
