Default does battery need Y connection to Rx and engine?

I have a hitec feather flight pack and want to install it on a freeflier which already has a 5x270mAh battery pack and a 35watt motor. My q is: Do I need a Y connector coming off the battery so that leads can be sent to the Rx and to the motor? Or can I just leave the leads I already have going from the battery to the engine and just make another set of wires go to the Rx? Or do I need a separate power source/batt pack for the Rx?

Thanks to all who can help

Jim
