6s doesn't necessarily mean more power though, if you run it with a lower motor I believe you end up more efficient over all, with less strain on the motor and speedo for the same speed. If 4s can easily last 20 minutes then maybe there's not so much call for it, but I wouldn't want to rule out 6s if it's a more efficient overall option.
