I would say to go wit the taildragger set up. I have a few Prop Jets with nose gear but its expensive setup. The nose gear on most trainers is junk and unstable and requires constant adjustment.
To be honest with you , I think you'd be better off without it. Do you know where to mount it?
On covering. Arfs come in a stupid coler set up being the same on top and bottom. All those cute designs are of no use when yur plane s 300 ft up and 500 ft away from you.
I have recivered every arf I own. mainly I make the entire underside all white. My favorite colors on top is red, Cub yellow or blue. With the differecn in contrast, its much easier to keep up with the plane.
