Hi guys, a little question...

I'm currently trying to rebuild my RC trainer aircraft after a few years of neglect. I've got a new engine for it, plus all the old (working) RC gear. However, before returning it to the flying field, I want to invest in some new batteries for the receiver and transmitter. What I'm a little confused about is the different specs. Currently it has 4 x AA Sanyo's NiCad's which I want to swap for some fresh NiMH's. However, I'm not sure whether I want 1300mAh or 2100mAh etc. Does the higher the number, generally indicate a longer charge? Its been so long since i've been into my RC stuff I've completely forgotten!! Any help, greatly appreciated! Cheers
