Default RE: e-flite mini edge 540

I have purchased one of these after seeing one at my field a couple of weeks ago. I finished installing the radio equipment and was waiting for the motor to arrive at my local hobby shop. I am using Hs 55 for aileron and elevator and using the new Eflight servo for the rudder. It is a little faster and a little more trouque, but doesn't have the same amount of throw as the Hitec. Here is my setup.

E-flite 400 4200 Stock gear box
Castle Creations Phoenix-35 amp
3 HS-55
1 E-flite S75 Servo Rudder

Haven't picked a battery yet but I am leaning toward 1320 mAh battery. I have read that this will get you at least 8 minutes of flying time. Will do a little more research. Hope to finish this plane up tonight. I have to mount the motor and balance her. I went with pull/pull for the rudder. Needed the practice for my bigger planes on setting up pull/pull
