What Micro servo for Futaba 8fg??

Hi gents,
Was wondering if someone could recommend a micro receiver for my Futaba 8fg?
Doesn't have to be Futaba as I have an 8ch Orange Rx which is too big for my Weasel??
Thanks in advance

Do you want to go "proper" micro, with Molex servo plugs like this one?

Or have normal servo plugs, like these?

Not sure how small it needs to be to fit a Weasel, but I have a FrSky TFR6 in my Speedo which wouldn't accommodate a Futaba 617 rx - or at least not at the front where I wanted to put it. The rx works fine, in fact I was flying it this evening.

Yes, the TFR6 is very compact. I have a couple of spares in my stock and would photograph one in my hand for you to see if it weren't for gale force winds, wasn't pi**ing down and if my garage/hangar was attached to my house.
Maybe tomorrow, eh?

And have been very reliable, I have many of each (except the molex plugged which are too restricting for the tiny weight gain for me!)
