Talking Futaba High Torque Servos

Getting ready to build my first gasser..I have decided on Texas Planes 23 cc L19 Bird Dog.
I have been a futaba guy for many years and want to keep it all futaba..
Sure Hi Tech is cheap yet you get what you pay for right???
Question is what servos should I get for this model.."
I have scanned Futaba's list and not sure what to buy..
I will be using a Futaba T7C Transmitter...

I have a 50cc Decathlon. I am using the Futaba 3070 servos on all surface. 94 oz-in at 7.4 volts. I use the 3071, 146 oz-in on flaps.

Hundreds of flights, great servos.

Bill, That 3070 is a "car" servo. Does it make a difference? Dan.

Not sure where you see it's a car servo.

But regardless, as I noted above, I have 100's of flights on them in my 50cc 96" Decathlon. Great servo, especially for the money

I saw it some where but I can't find it now. In any case, it really doesn't matter as long as it performs fine. Thanks for the response. Dan.

No worries. Futaba has a truly mind blowing array of servos. Easy to get lost in them!!

What torque servos does Texas planes recommend? do you need hv servos. Futaba has some very good servos that I am sure would do the job very well and are cheaper than these.

I have always used Futaba and use Futaba servos in my giant scale mustangs with no problems, and have never paid this much for Futaba servos.
