Hi Freaks I need some help. I was going to get an align 600n pro but after talking to some guys, It looks as though the 600n will be expensive to replace parts mainly the side frames. I am planning on starting flips, rolls, and inverted so there will be crashes. So it looks like I decided on a titan. What servos are everyone using? I am using a JR 9303 and unsure on the gyro but the 401 with servo does good on my 450 se so I may get another one. Has anyone tried the ace stuff? So, I am wondering what the best is for the money and they could be JR or FUTABA or ACE.

401 is a pretty good gyro but its not a 611, its also not 320 bucks.
For servos standard choice is the 9252, I have them in all my 50s.

I'm in the same boat...
Would the servos that come with my DX7 be fine?

No.
They arent reccomended for 50 size nitro helis, the shafts can shear off.
The DS821 servo is a powerful, accurate sport digital servo recommended for RC airplane applications up to 1.20-size. For helicopters, the DS821 operates best with 30-size glow models, and up to 50-size electric. Loads and vibration in larger models may cause premature failure of the servo resulting in damage or injury to property and persons.
Important: Do not use liquid thread lock with the DS821 servo!
Do not use any form of liquid thread lock to secure the servo arm screw to the output shaft of the DS821 servo. Chemicals in these liquids react with the polycarbonate gear set causing the plastic to become brittle, fracturing the final output gear.
