Does anyone know where to put the reciever and battery? The instructions that came with it are very poorly translated and don't even mention where to put the radio gear at all, another thing too, how does the fuel tank stay in there? Rubberbands?

There's several threads on this plane, includeing one I did in the FF section with mods.

Short version: To get CG right, place rx and bat under aft edge of wing, you'll have to make a hatch. Throw away engine mount, buy fiber mount and bolt engine mount to firewall, add strenth to firwall. By not useing that stupid plywood thing, you can easily place a REAL tank in the nose, 6oz Dubro fits perfect!

The fuel tank should have silicone on the front of it before you put it in the hole that will hold it. I have a 4oz on mine and I get around 18 fly time with my OS25LA. What engine are you putting on it?

You are going to love this plane if you have it set up right. It is very cool. Mine is powered with an O.S. FSR .25. Is out of sight straight up in just about 10 seconds. Will KE loop to a snap to 180 degrees on a return line all by itself with only rudder input. Love it.
