Comparable to the recommended 8611a's, but cheaper? I want to get this plane in the air before the huckfest, but with everything else I need to get I can't afford to buy top-shelf goods right now. Are there comparable, yet cheaper, servos that will work? Or is this just desperate hope?

edit: maybe 5745s? TBM has them for less than 70 bucks apiece.

I wouldn't go with the Hitec 5745's. They are 1/4 scale servos that are bigger than standard servos and weigh over 5 ounces each. The Hitec 5985 or the 5645 would be better.

What about for the rudder? Would those suffice in a single pull/pull? I do like the prices on the 5645s tho, 45 bucks each. Way less than I expected to pay. TBM has 7955s for 99 bucks right now, one for the rudder and 5645s for the control surfaces? Bear in mind I won't be throwing any blenders out there, either- but I might sneak in a snapasaurus

For the rudder they should be OK unless your doing some really crazy stuff. But to be safe, go with a 5955 or 7955 on the rudder if you can afford it.
