Default HS-5945's on 102" Yak Ailerons/Elevator?

Alright, I'm contemplating putting together a 102" QQ Yak as an upgrade from my Cap 580 that is now reduced to knife-edge-only flight. If I do, I'd really like to keep as much equipment from the Cap as possible. That would mean using Hitec HS-5945's, 2 per aileron and 1 per elevator half. Are these servos gonna cut it? The plane would be set up for IMAC and Freestyle.

I'm not going to compromise the airplane or performance, so if I really need to jump up to 5955's or 8611A's then I will, but it's going to be enough of a financial crunch just to get the 102" Yak airframe, let alone start replacing servos...

5945'are good servos, check the inside of the case tops on your broken wing. Sometime the little piece of plastic that holds 1 of the pins breaks in a crash you just have to replace the top.
