Default What battery do you recommend?

I will be flying a kombat20 with an os40la and mousse can muffler. 3 Hobbico cv-12 servos rates at 35oz torque at 4.8v and 40oz at 6v. Also 1 futaba s3003.

My question is. Do i want a 4.8 volt 270mah to keep weight down or do I go with the 6v 600mah for the extra torque? Thanks

I like the 6v batteries for the extra torque. I make my own from NiMH so they're almost as light as the 4.8V nicad's of a size smaller.
