Default RE: What Reciever Battery for Ultimate Bipe

One more question!...In an ultimate bipe (90 sized goldberg) would it be beneficial to have two reciever batteries? (i.e. 2x 2000mah 6v nimh's). I have read afew tales of peoples switches shorting out, one on a biplane like I am building and it has put the heebie jeebies up me! I anticipate to of these batteries would weigh about 10oz. I am over killing this, or would it be prudent? I figure the weight isn't too much of a prob but others may have a different take?

Also, running two 6v's into the reciever isn't going to overload it is it? will it still be 6v? (you can probably tell i'm not too clued up on electronics in terms of volts, amps and all that!)

Thanks for the help!
