Default 9153 current draw

Krista:
I have 5 futaba 9153 digital servos in my plane and I´m running 2 batteries rated at 6 volts, 2700 mAh for them. I have a 4.8 volts 1500 mAh for the receiver, I´m using an i4c isolator/servo power to isolate the receiver from the rest of the equipment. It is a gas powered plane so I have anothe 6 volts for the engine.
My questions are these:
Can the 9153 servos (all 5) run on a single 6 volt 2700 mAh batt?
Can I eliminate the i4c isolator and run everything from the receiver directly? won´t the high current draw of these servos fry my receiver (it´s a 319DP synthetised)
How much will a very well charged 6 volt 2700mAh last with these servos?
Any advice is welcome
John
