Default LED powering question

Would it be ok to run 2 extra small wires off my battery with a plug to run my leds?

I run a wire to my receiver to power my LEDs, that way you have consistent voltage. If you changed batteries with different voltage using your method, you could cause issues with your LEDs. If you are making your own LEDs, you can put the correct resistors for the voltage you plan to power them with.

It's the axial Ax24257 the only reason I said that is because I have my 3rd channel with my dig kit servo an don't have anymore room on my receiver

How about a y harness to your receiver (only using pos and neg wires) for the lights?

I figured it out there's a bind spot on my SR301 and I can plug them in there for power
