UltraBorg should be happy controlling any small 5V servo, so you can go as small as you like.

The cable lengths really depend a lot on the cable itself and slightly on the servo.
Shorter cables are more reliable, so you can have them as short as you like.

Longer cables are the most likely to be a problem.
I have seen a friend use a 5m cable perfectly fine to give an indication of what you might be able to get working.
The best idea is to get some lengths of cable and see if they work properly.

If the servo does not respond to movements properly it is probably that the cable length has become too long.
You will be able to get better distances if you use a better quality cable which is either thicker or shielded.
