Default HV tail servo on 500EFL PRO what options?

I need some advice and input here pls guys.
I plan to fit new KST DS515MG cyclics to my 500, running at 7.4v or 8.0v. It has a Gryphon Polaris BEC on it so current supply is sorted.
But what about a decent HV tail servo?. The BK DS-7001HV has an excellent rep, but IMHO it is heavy (68g vs stock Align 29g)
KST show a DS565X on their website, rated for use as a tail servo on 500 size heli. Also a bit heavy, but "only" 40g.

1) Has anybody used this tail servo, and what i its performance like?
2) what other options do I have?
3) should I look at a 6V tail servo and use a voltage step down to it?

Let me know your thoughts please.

I must have asked either the dumbest or trickiest question ever on HF. Anyway, I decided to replace the heli's original Align DS510M and DS520M servos with new align DS515M and DS525M and keep them at 6V

The tail servo you mentioned (the BK-7001) is a full size servo. You could go with their mini sized tail servo, the BK DS-5005HV. It is a great servo, and at 50g, it splits the difference between the Align servo and the 7001.
