Default Servos?

HI all! I am purchasing a ready to fly Jtec Radiowave Panzl S-330 35%. It is ready to fly, and the guy has flown it several times. My question is reference to the servos he has in the plane. He has Hitec 5645MG servos in the plane. 2 in each wing half for the ailerons, and each elevator half has its own servo. The rudder has Hitec 5955 on it. The instructions on the plane recommend 5955 if you go with Hitec. The 5645's put out around 160oz, so first question is.....with the ailerons having 2 servos per aileron would that be a combined 320oz of torque per aileron? Second question is can I fly the plane with the 5645's? I am not flying 3D with this plane, I will be flying IMAC with this plane so the control throws will be soft. I understand that the book recommends 5955's but If the ailerons have a total torque of 320oz from the 2 5645's in each wing half, I cant see them needing any more than that. The elevators only have one per elevator half, so each elevator half will get the 160oz of torque. I am knew to the giant scale plane thing, so be easy. Thanks for all the help in advance.
