RE: yak 54
On a smaller model like that, you would need anything high torque. I'd say 45 to 50 oz in or better are fine. More precise servos are always worth the investement in the difference they make in the models feel.

RE: yak 54
Speed is important, but most servos in that range are of acceptable speed. You dont need real hi torque servos for a small model like that. The biggest demand for torque would be on the rudder, in maneuverl like snaps and knofe edge. Hammers and hovering put very little load on the rudder as there is no airspeed.
