If you're going to use big servos, you probably want to use a BEC (
http://www.castlecreations.com/products/ccbec.html ) located next to
the servos (to avoid voltage drop along long wires).

If your vehicle is large, you probably want to use a CAN servo driver
( eg lisa/M ) to avoid running PWM signals over long distance.
