Depends on how many servos are connected, also the load on them, should last at least 6 hours

Only one servo. Used just once per trip. Wasn't sure how much radio gear actually used.

The reciever uses very little power, its the servos that are the main drain, so with one servo on i take it the rudder, if its a smallish or fairly slow model the battery should last for 10 - 20 hours
