Default RE: How much torque is needed for a throttle servo?

I've never seen a statistic for it, but most glow engines would probably be easy on a 15 oz servo. Depends a lot on the smoothness of the carb barrel itself and the resistance or the control linkage. Tight turns with a sleeved rod can be surprisingly hard to cycle.
