6g servos are fine, as long as you don't use the very cheapest ones. In my Yellow Jacket I'm using servos from Scanner RC (with one BB, and a weight of 6-7g). Another important thing is to not have any slop (especially on the elevator), pull-pull works very well and it is lightweight. I have never tried using just glue for attachment though...
