Rajul,
Hi- I'm using an APC 14/8. I did change out the wheels to a slightly larger size but never have had a clearance problem.

The stock main gear was crappy. I changed it to a Dubro fiberglass gear and it gave me the same prop clearance. Never need to bend the gear again on less-than-ideal landings. Probably had two rough landings in high winds where the gear was flattened out but absolutely no damage. Also glad I had some reinforcement in the fuse area behind the wings.

sedleniek, that's the combo I'm flying, 4*60/.91 Saito. I was spooked by the low tank and went with a Cline regulator. I might not have needed it, but having the same mixture throughout the flight is worth it.

Those aren't that critical. Just make sure the ailerons are the same on each side and near what appears neutral and you sill be fine to fly.

clean the parts with alcohol, and put a small dab of blue locktite on the tip of the bolt. operative words "clean" and "small" dab.
