Battery for Copter

Hi,

What would be the preferred battery voltage (3s or 4s) for a quadcopter with 4x950KV motors, weighing approximately 1300g and equipped with 11x4.5 inch props?

I need more batteries but have an equal number of 3s and 4s. I am wondering whether to choose 3s or 4s for new set.

Motors and ESCs are rated for both 3s and 4s.
The hover throttle is currently approximately 0.2 with a 3S battery.

For similar quads I run 4S.

4S for sure - I would say somewhere around a 5-6Ah pack would be ideal.
