I have the same plane also. Great choice! I have an OS 46ax in it with a 12 oz tank, good for about 14 minutes per flight. The plane balanced nose heavy, even with the battery under the tank. Suggestion on the landing gear-mount landing gear blocks in both tricycle and taildragger positions when building, then easily convert to taildragger when you're ready. The extra weight of the block is neglegable. Color scheme-mine is red on the bottom and cub yellow on top with black pinstriping, very easy to see. Good luck on the build, you're gunna love it!
