Default Flight pack for Big Stik

After much debate I am about to pull the trigger and purchase a Great Planes Big Stick .40. I have pretty much decided on an os .46 ax for power. I already own an Spektrum dx6i Radio. My question now is the flight gear. What reciever is best? I assume I need a "full range reciever" I have been flying only fomies and park fliers till now and moving my AR6100 reciever around. I was going to get an AR6200 but now I see they offer an AR500. Any suggestions?? As far as servos go I am a bit baffled. I know I need "standard size" servos but thats about it. Ther are so many out there...ball bearing, dual BB, metal gear, digital and the list goes on. I just need something to move the control surfaces! Don't want to spend a fortune but do want something that will last as I fully expect this plane to be a workhorse in my hanger for years to come. Any advise here?? Thanks!
