Ok model is built from some old kit, plans are engineered by Tom Storm and drawn by Dell Hall. Model has wingspan of 71" and length of 64". Its very nice model though previous owner said he had 60sz engine on it but plans call for Webra Speed 50, he also changed T tail configuration to conventional type for easy transport in his car to the field.

I'm planning to add flaps on the wings as I think this model needs them instead of full wing ailerons.
Airfoil is semi symetrical. Well I'm also planning to recover it in original or scale colors as its in full aluminum with bit of red on the X structure on the aft fuselage and kinda looks ugly to me.

What do I need to know before flying it plus what methords do you guys have to start the engine?
