I have a Kangaroo that has Hitec servos, you can get them for Futaba or JR. I have Hitec's 5645 digital metal gears, about 168 oz on a 6.0volt battery

I used Hitec 5645 on my Rookie. Flew the plane for 5+ years with the same servos without any issues. [8D]

and the nice option with Hitec servos, very programable, the Jr's are not, not sure about Futaba. Our LHS has a programmer he loans us the programer if we need to program a Hitec servo, only thing I have ever had to program the hitec servo was to reverse one of them for the elevator set up.

The programming on the Hitec's allow you to offset the middle position on the canard servo so in one direction you can get massive movement to allow the canard to go 85 deg up to act as an airbrake without loosing resolution around the middle movement.
