Yep digi servos will work on 35mhz and with non digital servos plugged into your rx

Thanks thats great i can change them over now!!

The difference bettwen a digital and a non digital servo is in the way its internals work. It uses the same signal from the receiver.
With an ananlogue servo when you try to force it to move from position it resists with a gradually increaing force.
With a digital servo it will resist with its maximum force as soon as you try to move it.
They will generally use more current than analogues.
So the digital servos will normally fly a bit more accurate than analogue becuase they are more determined to go exactly where the tx tells them to go.

There are some (very few) digital servos that are designed to work only with a matched gyro (Futaba BLS251, 9256) and those will not work off a receiver channel.

You have summaried it very well - it should be a great help to all newbies.

Thanks for the explanation it does help when you know why and how something is better.I,m going to change all my s148 on my nexus to s3050 and was going to put an engine in for sale to maybe swap for servo/s but i,m not allowed to post there as i dont qualify even though ive been a member over a year now and visit here regular.But it seems that if you use the forum correctly and search for your answers first it means i need to post less as dont know enoughe to give accurate answers and am now penalised for it .I know its supposed to be a security thing but anyone can post pointless crap just to gain points and i dont do that.
