Default Nextar Kit - I need advice on Servo+Engine

I am about to order the Nextar kit (w/out radio and engine) and would like to know what folks are using for both. I am brand new to flying and my local club and instructor have suggested that I get this plane. I'd like to buy stuff that will last as I plan to be in this Hobby long enough to fly some larger planes - and perhaps Jets.

I plan to use my Futaba 14MZ radio and receiver in this plane - but need advise on what servo's I should buy. Will these work (futaba ball bearing http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXFMD5&P=M )- or should I get something better?


Also on the Engine - is the OS 46 good enough - or if I spend a few more bucks can I get a better engine that I would be able to use in my next plane?
