What is the proper way to power multiple sensors from one arduino?
I have a couple of pro minis that have one vcc and two gnd, the radio is already powered from the vcc. So do I just split some cables and power everything from the same vcc/gnd? -

You do have to make sure that the Arduino can source enough current for all of the sensors that you have. The amount they can source will depend on which Arduino you have.
