Default What speed control to use?

What is a good regular brushless speed control(not heli) to use when using 4 servos and a 3 cell lipoly for VPP. I am looking at a Pheonix 25 but for 4 servos you can only run 8 cells. What do you recommend?

I run 4 digital JR 281 servos on my Phoenix 25 with a TP 3S1P Li-Po battery and have had no problems.

ive used the cc p10 on 5 servos (one digital micro) and 3s, not even hot, depends on the efficiency/quality of the motor though....

I was going to use gws naro and HS-55 servos. I was told that some micro servos draw more amps than others and the lower drawing servos might allow the setup to work. Has anyone used these servos with this setup? It sounds like it will work but I thought I would ask about these type of servos.

Can I use the CC10 with 4 HS-55 and AXI 2208/34 with my VPP or should I go for the CC25?

Does the HS-55 works fine with the VPP system? I read in somewhere that they are having problem, but I want to try !!!

Advices?

I was using a Phx25, but switched to the Phx10.. to save wieght./. VPP is all about weight.. EVERYTHING must be lighter... if you whole plane is over 9oz WITH battery, it is too heavy

No problems for me running the Phx 10, 2208/34, VPP, and 4 servos (3 GWS picos, and 1 HS-55 for the pitch)
