I have the exact same set up in 2 planes, except in one I have a Powerbox sensor switch rather than the Gemini. The Orbit powerjack goes an increased signal without the need for a Powerbox.
In my next plane I will have a Powerbox srs so I can use the latest cheaper receivers. The 6014 is a great receiver but it is very expensive. I use A123 batteries in all my planes 2 cell for receiver and 3 cell for ECU.

I too have a 12FG which I have had since they came out and see no reason to change for the moment.
