I find that as your pattern flying advances in the classes the need for very
decent servos is more apparent. The lowest I would recommend is coreless
ballbearing and 5 pole motor. Pick your torque for the size of your aircraft. If
plan to upgrade your plane in future as you move up in classes choosing 25.00
servos are probably not a good investment. Don't sell the throttle servo
short either and go with a cheapy. Can effects your idle.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
