ZG77_OzZ, I agree with all of it. I don't feel the need for the wires on the tail but when you need the weight, make it functional as he said. I don't recall how his rudder servo was but mine is mounted on bottom of fuse with pull-pull. I prefer that over stock setup. I'm real happy with the Sullivan tailwheel as well. I have not strengthened firewall or gear mount as yet. I figure I'll wait till it has a problem. I have watched two UCD's tear out gear on mildly rough landings.
