Is there any way to know how much servo torque is required? Or is it just an educated guess?
I have a 12.5" BBY Micro Patriot that needs a stronger servo.
I have a 15" micro Hydro with the same issue.
Need more torque. Im unsure what either servo is torque wise. The Micro hydro has decent torque. The one I put into the MP I can turn easily...
Would 21 oz-in be enough?

I do not know what you have in there at the moment but I can strongly suggest one of these

I use one in my 26" rigger and 26" Canard with a lot of success
My small 13" cat has one but has not got wet yet.
My new rescue boat has two but neither are used for steering :spy:

I ended up going with two of these:

I do alot of shopping at Hobby King, but I want it faster and not to pay $15 shipping...
So it worked out in the end.
21 Oz-In servo's. Best of all the exact size I need!
