Default RE: e-flite mini edge 540

I have an edge with the stock toasted gearbox, and eflite 400 4200 kv motor setup. Assembly was easy, setup with the pull-pull rudder setup. Cg was way tail heavy. it took lots of lead in the nose, even after moving everything up as far forward as i could to get the plane reasonably flyable. Before i spend a few more bucks on oem replacement gearbox, I am reading about the cobri gearboxes here. What pinion and spur setup is best? Also, as anyone tried an outrunner motor setup on one of these yet? I may would rather go that route, as it seems to be relatively maintenance free, but I don't have a clue as to what motor to get. any input on either setup would be greatly appreciated!
