Default Power Setup Help???

I am new to the larger gassers and am in the process of setting up a 88" Wild Hare Edge 540 that I aquired from a fellow club member. I am looking to use a setup similar to what a few guys in my club reccomend so that it will be easier for them to assist me in troubleshooting in the future. Here is what I am looking to use.

Radio - Futaba 7C
Engine DLE 55
Servos Hitec digitals (not sure of the model, but what the plane was previously flown with)
Batteries - 2 Each, Dual Battery Setup - Fromeco Li Ion http://www.fromeco.org/products/01frc2600-100/ with dual JR Leads
Switches - 2 Each already in the plane.
Regulator - 2 Each MPI MKIII http://www.troybuiltmodels.com/items/MPIR6VNEW.html
BEC/Kill Switch -1 Each http://www.troybuiltmodels.com/items/WRCIBEFV2.html

My question are:
With Dual leads on the batteries and on the regulators do I need 2 additional switches for the redundancy.
How would you wire this setup?

Thanks
