Default need some confidence(help)

ok here is the set-up;
-.40 trainer, high wing, high elevator(mounted at top of rutter, instead of bottom), 5lbs plane and all the "e-stuff"
-"TP" 3s2p 11.1v 4200mah lipo
-AXI 2820/10
-jeti advance 40-3p esc
-figure on using either the 11x7 apc e-prop or 12x6 apc e-prop

---i have everything placed roughly were i want it and cg is looking good.
---my first question is do i need to worry about direction/angle of the placement of the motor?
-angle up/down/left/right measured/compared to what?
----my second question is what about the "BEC"?
-do i continue to use the rx batts or completely remove them?
-i did not get a "BEC". i think this esc has one built in, or does it not have one, and i need to purchase the "UBEC"?
-or do i just wire the lipo's to the esc, esc to the motor, and by plugging the esc to the speed "port" of the "rx" this gives the rx power.

thanks for the help, it is difficult to find any help at the LHS in/around Knoxville, tenn. they all are still scared to even carry lipo's(they fear the whole town will burn down from one faulty lipo) and none carry the brushless and esc's for them. so info is hard to find. so i drove to nashville just to talk to the guys at hobby-lobby in person to get this e-quipment.
