am using 4 - 625MG's for control surfaces 2/ailerons,1 elevator,1 rudder in a .45 size 3D plane.
1.) was planning on using a 5 cell Nimh pack.
do I or should I need a voltage regulator?
what mah would you recommend? is a 2700mah pack enough?

2.) need to run extensions from the elevator and rudder servos
should I be using heavy gauge extensions? or are the standard ok.
any advantage/disadvantage of one over the other?
alomg the same lines should I be using a heavy gauge switch?

No regulator is required unless you run Lithium batteries. 2700Mah is perfect!

It is always a good idea to use HD extentions on anything over 6", especially with high torque servos.
