Default Hitec servos

Going to replace the servos on my belt cp. Thinking of hitec hs-55's. Shouls I use all of those around or all of them and a hs-50 for the tail. Does it matter? Thanks

From my understanding the Futaba 3114 would be better, they are faster and have more torque. A buddy of mine has a belt CP and that's what he is putting in his.

the other thing to consider is that if you're using the stock radio you can't use the hitecs as they rotate in the opposite direction.

I do have the stock radio for now. What servos do you suggest I use other than the eskys?

Droggy,

As Charlie mentioned, the Futaba 3114 would be the ticket, as they do turn the same direction as the E-skys. Hitecs are good too, but you'd have to modifiy the interal wiring of the servo to make it turn in the right direction. Here's a site for wiring modification.
