Default Surprise VII Setup suggestion

I’ve bought a used Freudenthaler Surprise VII (F5F) but only the model with servos.
I’m now wondering what set up engine, speed control, LiPo battery, and propeller I should aim for?
I will not participate in any competitions in first case, but only go for fast sport recreation flying.
It should have very good vertical prestanda upwards.

My present model that I fly now is the FVK Bandit and I measure around 1000watt with a “Watts Up” gauge.

I have found the Plettenberg 220/30/A1 P4 7:1 as an alternative motor with a suitable JETI Spin speed control and some AeroNaut folding blades.

Please come up with some suggestions, and if there is some one who fly a Surprise 7 so please share your experience of that bird.
(Sorry abut my poor english. I'm from Sweden)
