Reinforce firewall. That's about it. It has neutral handling, and with a 125 put the rudder servo in the fuse as pull pull.

I got mine last summer, over 40 flights on it so far. I made no modifications. Didn;t touch the firewall. I used a single servo mounted in the tail for the rudder.
I am using the TT120 2 stroke. I have experienced the issue where the plane does not leave the ground even at full throttle it hugs the ground. I compensate for that with about 20 degrees of flaprons on takeoff. and it takes off at 1/3rd throttle. other than that the plane is a Gem. flies really nice pattern.
