Do you have exponential curve on your transmitter that you use? If not I would rethink you throttle servo horn setup. The way you have it you are going to have a very dead stick at WOT. If I had to guys your would move the trigger/stick nearly half of the travel before the carb reacts.
Also look at the steering link on the rudder side. That "quicklink" system tends to wear the steering block arms's hole out within a few runs and then you start getting slop on the steering. If I were you I would turn the whole link rod around and have the ball link on the rudder side. Those quicklinks last much longer in the plastic servo horns.
