Default Questions from first time pattern electric

I'm just about finished with my Vanquish 2M build which has to be one of the easiest ARF's that I've ever assembled. I used the Himax 6330 and phoenix ice 80.
So here are my questions:

I need a separate battery and regulator for my receiver and servos correct using the phoenix ice 80?

I know I wire my batteries in series.

I see armsafe connectors on websites. Are these normally used?

Which connectors between batteries, escapements and motors are easiest or more safe?

I've had many recommendations for battery chargers. Will the Hitec X4 charger work well for the 5S battery packs?

The only reason I like that charger is that it has a built in AC supply and since I fly right out my back yard it would be just easier to charge from a wall circuit. I also had recommendations for the Cellpro 10xp and buy a separate power supply.

Thanks for your help. Jim
