From what I am reading in the last few posts, it seems that I MUST have speed brakes installed before this weekend or hold off the flight until I can install them. Which brake is easier to install, the air operated one or the servo operated? It also sounds like the RAM 1000 may be too much power for a beginner.

I will speak to the guy I bought the engine from and have him turn down the engine to the 750.

Thanks again for all the previous and forthcoming advice.
