Phil, I have using ngUpgrade on some extremely large projects and it works well. Once it is setup, it's insanely easy and beneficial. I have done it over a dozen times and it works great.
Further, almost none of the code from an AngularJS service is Copy/Paste to an Angular service. Depending on how you wrote the service, you may be able to copy some of it. But... you wouldn't want to. Writing Promise-based services isn't anything like writing Observable-based services. ngUpgrade is the most supported way to go when upgrading from AngularJS to Angular. It allows you to do a slow re-write instead of a full blown re-write which comes with lots of risk.
