minimum 645 crap. thats gonna be a bit more money are you guys talking these http://greathobbies.com/products/pro..._id=HITHS645MS
that seems overkill when they ask for 50 ounces minimum. these are like twice recomended.

Get the crappy servos and say good bye to your plane.

Get the servos that cost like $10 more and enjoy for hundreds of flights.

you make the decision

I agree get the better servos. It like an investment in the fact that you don't have to pay all the money on a new plane when it crashes because of flutter. Besides you will be able to use them over and over on other aircraft and when you get good you will be able to appreciate the better performance you get out of them vs. buying cheap now and then having to buy the others later cause of a crash or cause you need the quicker reaction time out of the servos cause you are getting better. Just remember you may be paying more now but you are saving money in the long run. However, thats just my opinion and it is your money so do what you think is best.

I bet the 605's would work good.... and the fact that they aren't being used makes them even better! I am all about saving money too.
