Default SIG Hog Bipe Servos

I bought a Hog Bipe and was wandering which servos should I use (torque) for it?

I don't own a Hog Bipe, but if it's 40 (or even 60) size, I would imagine standard servos would be fine. I'd use two for ailerons though.

Thank you for your response; I'm not really interest in very radical aerobatics so I guess standard servos would be fine.

I built the Hog Bipe with dual aileron servos and used standard Futaba S3004 BB servos. They seem to be holding up okay so far...

If I remember correctly Sig recommends at least 60 oz of torque on the rudder servo. S3004s are not that strong even with a 6v battery. I am sure many people are successfully using standard servos, so use your own judgment. Just wanted to pass along the manufacturer's recommendation.
