I would run a 11v lipo pack and Castle Creations voltage regulator for each servo. The packs have 12.3v fully charged and the evx will handle it no problem, but the bec is weak at best so that will need help. If you don't wan't to pony up for lipo/ charger and stuff you can always build or have built custom packs with as many cells as your esc can handle! I would still run the Castle reg(s) though.

1 castle bec will be more than enough for 2 1/4 scale servos. And if you plan on running a lipo with an evx you will need to install a low voltage cut off for the battery if you plan on using it more than once.
