Default which servos?

i am deciding on the servo selection for my Patriot (under construction)

i keep reading posts that get me more confused than anything...
http://www.rcuniverse.com/showthread...57&forumid=162

can anyone help with the servos choice? HITECH seems a good brand but which one? am on a budget, (no digitals) just a good fast reliable servo at a good price!

or if there is a super servo at a super price of any brand- let me know!

will use 2 servos in the wing (flaperons)
micro for the engine (MVVS .49)
have a JR XP662 and some spare 537's that came with it

THNX for helping!!

Your 537 s should be OK.

Default BETTER servo?

let me reformulate my question:

is there a better than standard servo (fast, reliable and with a little extra torque / holding power) at a bargan price?

I mainly use Hitec 425BB's in most of my planes. They've always been good to me so far, and they're a pretty good price for a dual BB servo. For a couple bucks more, the new 475HB's have more torque, the new heavy-duty gear train, and top BB.

Servo City and Spectrum Hobbies seem to have the best prices on Hitec equipment, from what I've seen.
