For the decals I bought a inkjet waterslide do it your self decal kit from Bel Inc (
http://www.beldecal.com/) and used photoshop to cut and paste from the real thing. I then sized them to size, put them on and cleared over the jet to make them waterproof. Seems to work good so far.
For the lights, I have the nav lights and rear stobe. I bought them from tower for something like $22 for the LCD light kit. They just plug into ch 9 on my receiver and plug into a "Y" connector. I run a really big 4 cell 1800 MAh battery in the tail to halp with balance so they do not really cause any draw on the jets battery life.
As for the pilot, he came out of my wrecked VMAR T-6A Texan II. I just painted him to look the part.
Hope that helps... Good luck
