Default What Reciever Battery for Ultimate Bipe

Hi All. I am about to build a Carl Goldberg Ultimate Biplane kit and plan to be using 5x Hitec HS-645MG High-Torque 2BB Metal Gear Servos and one standard fuaba servo for throttle. I am wondering what sort of reciever batter pack I should be using to power all 6 servos adequately. I have a new 4.8v futaba 1500mah nicd...will this be enough? or should I be looking for a high amped Nimh like 2500mah etc? I plan on going with 4.8v rather than 6v just to reduce complications, and have enough torque on the hitecs at that voltage (103.5oz).

I don't have a lipo charger by the way and dont want to go down that road....more $$$$!

Thanks!
