RE: what torqe
It really depends on the type of airplane, size of the control surfaces etc. Most kit mfg's state what size servo to use I would start there. The weight of the airplane isn't much of a factor compared to size of the actual control surface.

RE: what torqe
Just happens that I have an Obsession. I'm using Hitec 5945's for the rudder and elevators and 5645mg's on the aileron's. Light airplane but huge control surfaces.
