In any case I was thinking elevator and rudder (single servo each) should be somewhere in the 70 to 90 oz range, the ailerons around 40to 50 oz range. The throttle can be about anything small or smaller

What would be a recommendation of a good bang for the buck servo for this application?


Thanks!

Ken,

look up Savox servos for good bang for the buck.
