Here such complete set servo will stand on the plane.
5245mg - 5 pieces.
5945mg - 1 piece.
225mg - 1 piece.
As the struggle with powerful(weight) is enough urgent on this model it would be necessary correctly to pick up batteries. What capacity of a board in your opinion can it is required with such quantity(amount) digital servo?? I assume to put 6 volt boards. And whether it is necessary to put NIMH batteries??

NIMH batteries will save you some weight. I would go with the 1650 MAH NIMH batteries from radicalrc or batteries america. Batteries America offers now also 2000 mah packs in the same size (AA bateries). Check them out at :
www.radicalrc.com
www.batteriesamerica.com
If you can't get them to ship to Russia, make sure you pick NIMH battery packs in AA size over there.

NimH Rx Packs - Too scary for me!
After reading this article, and doing some bench testing, I have decided to go back to NiCd packs in all my planes.
The voltage drop under load with NimH is too scary for me.
I have flown these without problems before though, to be fair.
I'm switching to 5-cell KR600AE (1/2A cells) packs.
The two I have built came out at 95g w/ shrinkwrap & connector.
KR-1100AAU cells look attractive for my bigger planes.
