1) It works but it really needs a .61 or even a .75.
I flew my friends with a tower .75 and a 3 bladed prop, it was a good combo.
2) I'd make sure I got an airframe designed for the fixed gear if I'm running fixed gear. This airframe was ''retract ready'' and was a pain in the butt installing fixed gear in it.
The stock nose gear constantly failed, what a PITA.
3) I wouldn't bother installing servos on the rudders. I'd save the money and the weight. I'd set them up in a fixed position with a pushrod so they could be statically adjusted. It would also help keep ballast weight in the nose down. I'm running 3.5 ounces in the nose even with the .46.
I bought one because I like the way my friend's FLEW but I'm thinking of leaving the rudders and stab off and flying as a flying wing or a canard. I just won a 30 size one I may test with, it'll be 4s electric.
4) I installed 3'' wheels in place of the tiny stock foam wheels since we have grass runways here.
We had to do that too. I was thinking of using DuBro plastic LG mounted under the motor. The stock main LG have the torsion bars mounted the wrong way.
