Default AW 42% 260 Pro Link size?

I am waiting for my 42% 260 to show up and wondering what size pro links are needed for the ail, ele, and rudder (servos in tail) to replace the stock links? Thanks

2.5" for the ailerons, 3" for the elevators, and 4" for the rudder. I am 100% sure for the ailerons and elevators, and 95% sure for the rudder - the distance from the hinge line to the center of the servo shaft (servo mounted with shaft closest to the hinge) is a tad more than 4-3/4".
