Default Running very slow H/S, bigger tail blades?

Hello chaps

I'm currently in the middle of putting one of my 550s into a Funkey scale fuselage. I've slowed my headspeed right down to cut responsiveness and give me a more scale like flight experience by gearing the heli down to about 1600rpm as well as cutting the cyclic pitch to about 5 degrees. I'm quite happy with the way it flies but am slightly worries about the tail authority.

I'm running 85mm align carbon tail blades, do you think it might give me more tail authority if I put some bigger blades on?

Am I wise? (this question is optional)

Thanks in advance guys.

Nick
