Actually, the engine would work just as hard in both cases, but only as long as it is wide open (like in a drag race). I should have been clear that I was assuming a wide open throttle.

In the servo example the load drops off very quickly for the elevator (like in a wall) but stays on the servo longer for the rudder during KE flight.
