Default Servo Torque

What is the minimum torque required on an electric heli servo? There are a few 9 gram and 18 gram micro servos on ebay with the following specs

9 gram servo spec:
LENGTH : 22.0 mm / 0.86 in
WIDTH : 11.2 mm / 0.44 in
HEIGHT : 22.0 mm / 0.86 in
TORQUE : 0.8 kg-cm / 11 oz-in @ 4.8v
SPEED : 0.11 sec / 60 deg
WEIGHT : 9.0 gm / 0.31 oz
VOLTAGE : 4.8v - 6.0v


18 gram servo spec:
size 28.4 x 13.2 x 35.1
speed 0.1 sec / 60 deg
torque 2.0/27.8 (4.8 V) 2.2/30.6 (6.0 V)


I just wanna make sure before I commit.

thanks
