Default RE: Anybody Re-use Aerobird Swift Guts?

One of my first thoughts was to try a Stryker frame, but I didn't know how to set up the servos. Swift has two ailerons and an elevator, while the Stryker has elevons. I assumed this was something programmed into the circuit board and couldn't be changed. I also wondered how I could go from a pusher set up to a front prop. Can you just reverse the wires to the motor, or buy a prop with reverse pitch?

I haven't totally dumped the swift. I could rebuild it with an $18.99 fuselage. I just wanted to try something new.

Thanks for the advice.
