.21 Firefighter servos...

[anthony scardina]

hey guys i've got a .21 firefighter im putting a novarossi longstroke into and am wondering what servos are ideal to run in it. i have an hs85 mg sitting, and i know hs645mg are what is usually used for steering on everything under the sun, but is that too large a servo to run in this small of a boat? also, i have 3rd channel mixture control (bob violet needle) so i will be running 3 servos. also, is a standard 5 cell rx pack for rc cars okay to use in it or is that too heavy as well?

thanks to anyone willing to help

I use a HS225MG for rudder in my FF21. Have 2 x HS81's but I believe they are discontinued now. I use a 5 cell, 2/3AA NiMh pack. Boat is under 4Lb's.
