Well guys, after seeing one at my LHS on Friday, and reading about them, watching mecam's video like 93 times, I broke down and got one today. I looked mine over really good, and it looks great. I am going with robart hinges all the way around, and will seal the hingelines with clear ultracote (lower temp works great over monokote). Going to mount the elevator servos (hitec 225's) higher up in the fuse to accomodate wire pull-pulls, and moving the rudder servo (hitec 625) to under the fuse, for pull-pull.
Still unsure on what to use for the ailerons (have some standard futabas and hitecs in the shop). Would 225s handle the stress on the ailerons?

Since the wing and elevators are bolt-ins, I was also contemplating building some "alternate" wing/elevator arrangements. Ever since I saw Don Sczur talking about interchangable wings/stab on his Focus, that got my mond grinding. Im thinking of making a slightly smaller, thinner pattern type wing and elevator with less movable surface. I think this airframe would be perfect for it, and would be a heck of alot cheaper than a full blown focus. Imagine showing up at a pattern contest with that, covered in the same scheme, and have it fly on rails. hehehehehe.

What other mods have you guys done, and what worked and didnt work?
