I want to use 2 NimH battery packs each rated at 6 volt x 2700 mah for a new build.
There will be 6 x 8511 servos and 1 x 8711 rudder servo along with a small digital throttle servo.

Do you think the 2700 mah battery packs will be sufficient for the number and type of servos above?
I know there are larger size packs out there but want to keep the weight down without adding over sized packs that are not needed.

In case anyone needs to know, I usually fly 3 x 15 minutes on a flying day.

Thanks
