Default Kadet Senior Aileron /Servo Problem

Hi all,
I flew my first flight on my Sig Kadet Senior ARF this morning, a little windy for me, but I managed to get it back on the ground in one piece. By my 3rd flight I was getting comfortable flying it and enjoyed my time in the air. The only problem I have is at full throttle the ailerons will not roll the aircraft. Once I back off the throttle it will roll quickly as you would expect. I am running a Magnum XLS .52A engine which has performed great. The servos are Futaba 3004 ball bearing that connects to a short 6-inch control rod straight to the aileron. Has anyone else had this problem with 3004 servos? It seems like they don’t have enough torque for the job, but I can’t imagine why standard servos wouldn’t work in this airplane??

Thanks for your time...Brian
