Thanks for the input Adam. I have zilch experience on the little servos so  I 
don't know. BUT I will find out

Matt, on  the subject of the JR DS281 mini digital servo, I have some  
thoughts.  I bought two of them last summer for a 3Dfoamy.com  superXtra 
(1.14m span, layered depron flat shockie, outdoors, 17oz).   I used them 
in rudder and elevator.  I found them to be extremely  slow.  This was 
supposed to be an aerobatic and slightly 3D plane,  and I wished I had 
installed faster servos.  The airplane flew like  crap, so it wasn't a 
good test to evaluate the 281, but I used them enough  to figure out that 
they aren't the best.

I'll probably be building  a Stevens Aeromodels Edge540 this spring.  It 
will weigh about 2  pounds, and from reading user reviews last fall, JR 
Sport looked to have a  servo or two that spec'ed attractively.  I've 
never done a 2-3lb  electric, though, so I don't know which servo is  best.
