Default RE: 6v or 4.8v reciever battery?

I'm not sure about the 2.4, I have so many hardly used FM radios that are in great shape. I've got an JR 8103 with little use, so probably no in the near future for 2.4.

Its the Giant P-51. I'm running higher-torque servos for flaps, ailerons, elevator, and rudder. The gear, throttle, choke, tailgear steering are all standard.

I'm looking at lots of flying time on one charge. At least 3 (maybe 4) everytime I go to the field with it fully charged.

If you are looking for allot of flying time, like 4-6 flights an outing, light weight, a ton of punch power to the servos, then why not go with lipos, 3000-4000 MA 7.8V regulated. I have been doing this for years now with all my giant scale stuff and never had a single problem. I do however charge my batts in a glass bowl with a lid for safety.
