I had a total wing failure on # 2. But in fairness it was after I slamed into the ground. I really don't think you have to do anything to the wing (except bolt it on) Just fly it. The landing gear isn't that hard to reinforce. Do it like raideron says. That's pretty much the same way I did mine.
As far as the Saito go, 5 gallon to break in??!?!?!? Whoa!!!!! I literally run mine for 1 tank (11ozs or 9.5ozs depending on who you believe) and install it in the airplane and go flying. I even start leaning the bottom end down after that first tank. Not all the way yet but start with the 2nd tank. After about 10 flights I will have progressively leaned it to normal flying jetting. Not that big of a problem. I've had my engine in 4 UCDs and I still don't have 5 gallons run through it.
Thanks,
Barry
