Also was looking on Hobby King - a lot of mini servos with brushless and MG - but I never hear anyone using them? I am not interested in paying $75 for a servo.. Any Turnigy or other HK servos people use and like?

Why not try a voltage booster instead?

Same size/weight as an rx pack, but no charging required. Just fit and forget!

As for the servo, you won't beat a Futaba S9650. You'll be looking at $50-$60, but you won't buy anything else afterwards.
