Default Dash Five - Servo Recommendation

Hey guys,

I'm getting pretty excited because I am close to getting this Dash 5 together after resurecting it from sitting in the bedroom closet at Grandma's house for the last 8 years!! Can you believe that!

Anyway, I need to get some servos and I am wondering what would be adequate for this plane. I decided to put an OS 61 with a pump and a Hatori pipe on it. I have an MK bellcrank assembly on the split elevator, a pull/pull on the rudder and there are separate aileron servos.

The control surfaces are small, I know, but it should be pretty fast so I don't know if I need some servos with a little more torque...or maybe just something a little heavier on the rudder.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Tom
