I know that 90 will be cutting it close on a 570, but the 500 it should do fine.

What servos for my 600?

I have Futaba S9252 on the 600, but struggling to find some in the UK. I have found one on Ebay, but they are pricey:(

So my question, low budget servos for a 600? Anyone used anything that works well? I am looking at getting 3 for about £100:)

I dunno Graham...beside Align...I'm not sure what else would be considered "budget" without getting into stuff from HK or an equivalent.

Bk 7001s are a great value. I am not sure if one over there offers them in a package deal. I got mine as a package then added the tail servo.
Bk llc lists these as follows

7001: $90 USD
7002: $100 USD

7005: $90 USD
7006: $105 USD

BK, RJX, Spektrum makes some good budget servos too (though not sure they're still making ones for the larger helis now that Blade cut them from the product line).

Now and then I find good deals on Torq servos. Usually on the more expensive side, but if you can find a deal on them you can pick up cyclic servos in the $40-50 a pop range. Hitec can be reasonably priced and good performance too, though they tend to pull more current compared to comparable models from other vendors.
