Thanks for the reply Fix-it,
That extended wing mod sounds like the same thing I did on my rc herr sky cruiser, which I was going to set up as two channel, thinking my old cox radio was legal, thus a climb and glide, so the extra span would have helped.. i digress.. but same deal, I just used the full length of leading, trailing and spar stock and made another pair of ribs.

60 foot lines seems like a mile to me- twice as far as 1/2a lines- awesome..

Are you planning on using flaps? I probably won't since this for me will be a trainer, and if I do a move that would be improved by flaps, I probably wouldn't know it. The medallion looks to be a good training engine, with it's more restrictive spray bar type venturi and single bypass. My only big fear is that I have no muffler for it, and most clubs require one on engines bigger than 1cc. Maybe I'll just stay some distance away and say it's just a cox. Most assume .049 when you say it's just a cox..i hope..
