Default Servo Recommendations for 1st jet!

Hi All,

I'm in the process of completing my first turbine model, a PCM AV8R, and I'm looking for some servo recommendations! According to the manufacturer, the final weigh of the model should be about 16 to 17 lbs, and the top speed should be about 125 MPH.

I'm a Futaba 18MZ radio guy, but I'm kind of partial to Hitec servos. That is not a hard-and-fast requirement if there is another brand I should consider.

Looking for servos the following functions:

Elevator
Rudder
Flaps
Ailerons
Nose Steering

I'm assuming some sort of a mid-range 'Sport Digital' servo would be appropriate?

Thanks for the input!
