400' is more than enough.

2 things I recommend:

1: glass the servo plates for flaps - 2mm plywood is not enough and flexes a little
2: Washers were needed to shim the landing gear for them to be a perfect fit in the wheel wells

50 or so flights on mine now - loving it!

Yesterday I took off 10mm of skin from under the wings to get 33 degrees of aileron throw for a faster roll rate for some rifle rolls. (stock roll rate was too little for a sport jet IMHO)
