Why Lanier ??
Guys,
I would skip Lanier all together. Get an Aeroworks kit for a little more, and you can't go wrong. Lighter, stronger, lower wing loading...the list goes on.
Then you'll know you won't have problems. I've got too much money in servos and engine to trust them to a suspect airframe. Remember, the airframe is the cheapest part when we're dealing with large airplanes.
