Default Kangke Texas Hurricane

I just ordered a Texas Hurricane and I have several questions. I am planning to use the Fuji BT-50SB 46.5cc engine and would love to use the on-board starter from Fuji as well. So my questions are:

- The "shipping" weight of the starter is quoted as 2.5#. The listed engine weight is 4.2# with muffler. Is this and the engine going to be too heavy for this plane?
- Has anyone here used the on-board starter and if so how well does it function?
- What do you all recommend using for pushrods on this size aircraft?
- What servos would you recommend using?

And finally, any additional tips, tricks or concerns that I need to keep in mind as I make my way from .60 size aircraft up to Gas.

Thanks in advance for your input.
