Default RE: Sites for gas setup advice.

Thanks again for the info guys. So here's where I'm at, as I see it:

I'm thinking of running two 2100 LiFe batteries hooked up to a Batshare.
From the Batshare to the receiver (does the smartfly BatShare require two RXports?)
Then a Tech Aero Ultra IBEC (or similar) hooked up to the ignition from the RXright?

A few questions concerning this. Firstly, where does the opti kill fit in, I understand that it hooks up to a switchable RX port but does it also fit between the IBEC and the ignition?
Secondly, How many on/off switches would I need with this set up? Where would they go?
Also, will Ineed a regulator for the hitec digital servo's when using the 6.6v LiFe packs? I know that my RX is good for 6.6v as it's well within the operating range.
Lastly, how many 6-8 minute flights can I expect with this set up running an IBEC?

Thanks again guys, sorry for all the questions but this is helping a lot.
