How heavy is the arm, and how fast do you want to move it?
Have a mechanical mentor help you calculate the amount of work (Nm) required to lift the arm, and divide that by how quickly (how many seconds) this task has to be completed. That will give you watts (power).
Compare that to the power rating of the RS550.
