I ended up with a jetelegend F-35 kit wich is as rare as chicken tooth at my place.. it is likely to do the maiden flight on it soon, but I am not sure of some things I decided like:

1) using flaps at takeoff, a la F18 to smooth out the takeoff rotation.

2) using just tailerons, and aleirons only as flaps.

3) cg placement.

Eventually I will change the paint scheme on it, to the scale gray ghost instead of the non scale "edwards" scheme, wich is best for long range visibility...anyway I will post my impressions here as soon as I do the test flight.
