Default 3DX: newbie to electrics and I want to know what I need

I'm getting things prepared to build a 3DX. But I'm not 100% sure what I need to get this thing flying. Here is what I got so far:

Motor: Himax 2015-4100
Gearbox: GWS 6.6:1
Speed Controller: Castel Creations Pheonix 25
Servos: 4 HS-55 or HS-50
Battery: not quite sure, would like some help on this one

I read somewhere for the Himax motor used with the GWS gearbox, that you have to have an adapter plate. Is that right? Any other information would very helpful. And also a few websites if you know any.

Thanks
