Its not clear if you actually expect to learn how to fly a conventional RC airplane or just expect it to operate in an autominous manner but the chances of you actually ever learning any manual flight skills with that set up as a beginner is slim indeed.

If you really want to learn skills then start with a conventional trainer and forget the useless bells and whistles.

There is one glaring problem with your ship and that is if there is ever the slightest prop strike then that long shaft is going to set up an awful vibrations that will make most of those devices useless. Simple slight prop strikes are common.
