My preferance for that airplane would be an HS 425BB my all time favorite in a so called standard on the rudder and elevator. A HS-81 or HS-85 on throttle and finally two HS-225BB's on ailerons.
The 225's are my favorites for a lot of airplanes and I have used a hugh number of them.
Here is my latest completion and flying a lot now since its so simple and delightful, A rebuilt wreaked Bridi Sun Fly 111 with the same engine you are using and it is servoed up exactly like I described.

I've used the HS-475HB servos for several years in many planes with no problems. The 475 has recently been replaced by the the HS-485HB. They are about $16 each. They have good torque and speed. I find my flying skills are not diminished using analog servos

I double what everyone else said. Only difference is I would suggest getting the 225 with metal gears. I've had a couple 225's strip the nylon gears pretty easy, switched to the MG and haven't had any problems since. I probably have about 20 of them in different planes now, my most used.
