I used the Spektrum 7040 retract servos, and they were a direct bolt in. I run them with their own 7.4v batt.

I think I don't have any more, if not less, than that. Mine is quite responsive on the ground, so I rarely have it on any high rates other than to taxi.

Yes I used the tank, but the lines I did not as I have Viton tubing for the tank. I believe the lines were good for gas though, but I can't honestly remember.
