Any thing will do. If you are going to spend money get hitec 65MG or Futaba s3156.

My 450SA (which is for sale, BTW) has the JR digital stuff, which is sold by JR as a set. They call it the JR Performance mini heli servo set, which is cheaper than buying them separately.

3400G digital mini hi-speed tail servo
DS285 digital sub micro hi-speed collective servos.

Hey, if you buy my heli, the servos come for free ;-) BTW, I'm not a JR guy and I love Hitecs for my giant scale and foamies, but these little digital JR's are really impressive on this heli. Best of luck with your TRex!

I agree with eh DS285s and 3400g ...these are great servos and lightning fast...You can also upgrade the 285s to metal gear for added peace of mind...

The most popular and proven are the Hitec HS-65MG's. You'll probably never strip a gear with these.

Another good choice is the Futaba GY401 Gyro with the Futaba s9257 tail servo.

I would use Hitec HS-65MG servos. Good luck! It's a nice helicopter.

I'd recommend this setup as well.
