I managed to get the servos with regular extensions through the channel as shown on the plans. It was a pain, but it probably took less than 30 min. The connections DO need to be secured (I use GoreTex fishing line), but I do that on all connections. It is cheap, easy, and has saved me at least one plane.

Mine balanced easily with a TT .46. If you are looking for an inexpensive engine, than this is clearly the only choice. It provides enough power to pull out of a hover with modest authority, and costs about $75 at Tower. If you want more power, then the sky is the limit - try a YS .63 at three times that price.

Lastly, I have to say that the OMP Edge that started this thread is probably the ugliest plane I have ever seen. No offense intended, but it is really not my cup of tea.

PS Here is my edge - you may feel the same about it.
