Should I go Gallo 12 or Gallo24?

Haha but really........
Okay so here is my current copter
Carboncore cortex (x8 coaxial)
Dji Wkm iosd
Rc tiger u5 400kv motors
Rc Tiger 60a esc
Rc tiger 15" props on top 16" on bottom
Dji z15 nex5r
Gryphondynamics power distro and bec

So the current weight of the above items plus leds/rx/vtx/fpv gear is 5.58 kg without lipos

The auw with rmrc 12400 6s lipo is 7.08 or so kg
That's the biggest lipo I currently fly with. I can't tell you exactly how long I can fly the single lipo for. I'll test as soon as I we don't have 60mph winds in Southern California.

I'd like to soon move up to a heavier camera/gimbal (more then likely gh4 zen with gh4)
And run bigger lipos (16000 or 22000) or run two rmrc in parallel(24800mah)

The biggest plus in frame is the mobility it can have. I can literally fold it down quick disconnect the gimbal and it fits in a medium sized pelican case. It's not the strongest frame but it works amazing. View attachment 22341 (for some reason couldn't find a better pic)
Now it has the zenmuse on the right side and has space for another z15 on the left side.

Okay and now onto new bigger/more efficient motor.
I've been looking at kde direct 4014 380 motor
The rctiger 4014 400kv also

I've heard nothing but good things with kde and been trying to punch numbers if the craft was a 8-9kg craft with bigger lipo/bigger camera

Any help would be appreciated.
