Default 4 surface elevon vs aileron/elevator

I am putting a MaxJet F35 together and deciding how to wire it. Since servo reversers are not in my plans I will almost certainly use 6 channels, although the reversers are potentially irrelevant.

Here is my question. Which control system is more efficient? I have also had the thought that I could flip a switch and turn the ailerons into flaps while maintaining elevon control on the tail.

This is uncharted territory for me. Any help is happily accepted.

Radio gear, 6 ch OrangeRx dsm2 rx and a DX7
