The 4 3/4" setting is VERY conservative. There was an addendum to the instructions in my kit saying you can go back to 6" without much problem. Mine's at 6" and could still go back a little more. I'd suggest you fly it at 5 1/2" and see how you like it. You can always mount the rudder servo in the wing area and use pull pull, if necessary. I originally did that with mine, but ended up moving the rudder servo back to the rear after flying it for a while.
