Can you put some numbers to that reasoning?
For example just how much current will flow from these 3U battery packs on a continuous basis, and how much current do you think is needed for 9 servos?
The surfaces on this plane are not so huge that you will ever stall the aileron or elevator servos, so the only real problem is the rudder. Use 2 5955s there and it will be unlikely to stall too.
I just wonder if you are worrying about a problem that you won't have.

I suggest you check with Red Scholefield in "The Battery Clinic". He is much more knowledgeable then me and can explain in detail what the exact problems are. I'm sure what he has forgotten, we don't know. I went with his suggestions for not using the high resistance AA size batteries to power the airplane. As far as HiTec servos of any kind are concerned ....... well I just don't have a pond near my home. See post #52
