Default aresti 40

after doing a search on this plane here I have found out several things about this ARF.
you gotta replace the fuel tank because it splits.
the elevator and rudder pushrods interfer with each other.
is this because the instructions have you mount the horns 1/2 in.
from the end of the elv.?
would mounting the horns 5/8ths. out fix the problem?
I am thinking about not using the arf o matic engine mount and mounting the engine at any angle other than inverted(TT 46) any balance problems for those of you who also used a two stoke?
if I side mount the engine should I block off the hole in the front of the cowl?
I have read reports of the horz. stab breaking off has anyone tried poking a pin hole and injecting thin ca. into the LE to harden it? whenever I asemble an ARF I always poke pin holes along the cut lines on the horz.stab and paddle epoxy into the holes. or is the stab breaking off further out from the fuse?
TIA for any info on this plane .Greg
