Default Servo question Need HELP

I am purchasing XRay 808 Buggy with a Futaba 603FS receiver. I got a Futaba 3PMX.

Anyways what servos should I get????
I was looking at Hitech 7955 or the Futaba Bls451

Which ones to get????
Also if I run the Hitechs can I still use the Futaba FASST system????

And what receiver battery should I get? Should I get the life battery or go with Lipo been reading that the life battery is better???

Anyways thanks in advance for all your help.

You picked a great buggy, I personally prefer the hitec, both are good I feel hitec if a little better servo. You can still use the faast system becouse it is a digital servo. Again I MUCH prefer life batt over lipo for a couple reasons...on reciever pks you get a little higher voltage that helps your servos out and you get many more cycles out of them than lipo. on a regular pack a lipo will last around 250 cycles and about 1000 for a life pk. Now if you ever convert to brushless, you can get about the same speed and endurance as a lipo with some simple regearing.

Can you run a LiPo unregulated with this receiver?
