Question #1: Anyone see any problems using 8411's on the ailerons and 8711's on all the other surfaces? Do the ailerons need 8711's or are 8411's plenty?

#2: What servo for a JR guy to use on nosewheel steering? I will be running 2 x 6.6 2500 A123's unregulated.

#3: For air system I'm planning on an UP3 for gear and doors, UP6 for brakes. Any issues there?

#4: Tailormade Decals, what's the best way to "fake" the fin? Not interested in repainting anything.

#5: Dave, you mentioned waxing it... is that before beginning work on it or after applying decals?
Servos exactly how i would do it. I use JR 579 (non Digi) on nose steering.

Have a few guys using the UP3 set up and UP 6 Best brake valve made....

Taylor Made stickers come with sticker sheet to get the fin better.

I wax before starting build, but like Alan says for the strakes, i use a dremel disc to rough the surface, clean with alcohol, stick 9462. The Taylor made decals go onto and stock on a waxed aeroplane just fine
