Are these servos legal?

My team needs to get a more powerful servo for our game piece, and the rules are somewhat vague on how they calculate maximum power.

[R48] states:
L. an unlimited number of COTS servos with a maximum power rating of 4W each at 6V.

The specs of the servos listed show the maximum current drain at 6V with no load, but is the 4W considering no load or the load that will be used?

Here are the servos in question. I would appreciate your advice.

3W max with no load
2.7W max with no load
