Hey, guys. Finishing up my first FE (scratchbuilt), and, in order to balance it, I had to move the battery pack back. I thought I had enough room for a servo, but turns out I do not have enough room for a regular sized servo (not only width, but also height). Now, I BELIEVE I have a mini servo (I believe it has metal gears, IIRC) among the big pile of RC parts I have in the storage closet, but I am SURE I have 2 microservos there (plastic gears for sure). Do not ask the brand, I do not remember (micro servos could be FMA direct? Mini servo could be Hobbico? I don't remember)! My question is, do you think it is better to run a single mini servo or 2 microservos? My rudder has both sides enabled, so I can have one going to each side... And I DO have 2 boots left (in fact, I drilled both holes thinking I needed both, then epoxied one close when I saw I only needed one; I regret doing that now!). The boat is 30" and powered by a Leopard LBP4074-B 1800KV, for reference.
Here is the component layout also:

Notice there is little space in the rear, and servo HAS to go in the rear for balance.
