There is a thread here on RCU titled " Boomerang XL II " There is a lot of info on the Boomerang XL.
Good luck with your XL , you are going to love it.

These ones will work just fine and the prices are good too.

HS225BB 67oz anything on the radio tray.
HS645MG 133 oz for Flap, Rudders, steering.
HS5645MG 158 oz for the Ailerons, Elevators, Rudders.

Now, if you are going to be going ballistic all the time with this jet then, I suggest more torque [>:]

I use the same servos as CarsII in my Boomer XL and powered with a P-120......

hope these pics help, also I built a battery box and put all 3 batteries above the nose gear and that helped alot with the balance. you will enjoy flying the jet.

as for the fuel cell, if you need to purchase one, I got mine from Mccmaster-Carr. I use their plastic bottles in a few of my jets and they never leak, and at $24.00 per bottle, it's cheaper then the other options.

any good 100 ounce or greater metal servos will work. I say metal on the XL because it the larger surfaces can load more than you think, so holding power is what you need to prevent flutter.

So use what you can afford. IF you plan to fly more jets later, then think about investing in a good set of servos thinking ahead

On the radio trays, I prefer the Little JR 285 or HS65, small and good.
