Default How much juice do I need??

For my current project I will be running the following servo's in a .90 size Extra, flying mostly aerobatics with no 3D.

2 Futaba 9252's
1 Futaba 9151
2 Futaba 9650's
1 Hitec HS-85

I currently have an 1100mah Ni-Cad Rx pack. This is my first venture into digital servo's and i'm unsure of how to determine the battery requirements for running this setup. Anyone have some advice or recommendations?

The easiest way would be to use an ESV before and after each flight to see how much of the charge is being depleted during each flight. Then you'll know. The 1100mah will probably be enough actually for 3+ flights.
