Default torque requirements for rudder servo?

I have a few 1/4 scale servos kicking around and was planning on using one for my rudder in my new stryker F41 cat, but the radio box gets really tight using a servo that big. Using a standard size servo will make things fit much better. My question is how many oz-inch of torque is required for the rudder servo?

Tweety, there are a lot of standard sized servos that will do the job quite well. You're going to want one with a good 100 oz./in. of torque or more.
I want to see some shots of that bad boy when you get it done!
