When I have a student show up with a Nexstar I have them take the AFS off and and speed brakes. The wing droops can stay on if the student wants them. I say that because sometimes they get a little upset to show up with this plane they just bought and I start taking stuff off of it. If they don't object then it all comes off. IMHO, students are better off learning to fly the plane without all of the "crutches".
