Default Venture 60 questions

Santa was good to me this year (don't ask me why heh) and I got what I think will be a great 2nd airplane - BTE's Venture 60 - woot. This will be my first kit so I'm pretty excited, but I do have a couple questions:

1) What engine to use? I'd like to go with a 4-stroke and the rec. range is .60-.80, but I notice that in some cases (i.e. Saito) you can get a .90 size with little or no additional weight. Should I stick to the .80 or go for the .90?

2) This plane can be set up with a single or 2 aileron servos. Would going with 2 be that much more advantageous (if so - why?) and if I do that can I still use a 4 channel radio (just have a skysport 4 now).

Thanks in advance for the input and any other things you think I should know about the Venture 60.
