Default HS65 in 500 heli?

Hi, I currently have a Trex 450 Pro (knock off version) and I'm thinking of upgrading to a 500 heli.
My question is, will my Hitec HG5000 Gyro and HS65 cyclic servos from the 450 be adaquate for a 500 heli? I was looking at the Align Trex 500 motor/esc combo.

Thanks, Mike

[]Your gyro should work well in a 500, BUT your 65 servo's might be a little puny (servo torque ) and will fall right through
the servo holes in the heli ! Most 500 size use a mini or even full size servos .

That would be a resounding no.

Thanks. That seems to be the consensus on the other forums. I think I'l going to go with a Trex 500 combo kit.
