Default Stickit IV mods?

Hurray! My Stickit IV plans finally arrived from RCM today. Guess I should start planning the mods and beging finding the accessories! Heres what I plan on doing so far:

-Enlarge elev. surface to Stickit V specs. Enlarge Rudder?
-Convert ailerons to dual wing servos with kevlar Pull Pull setup.

Any other good mods to bring it to Stickit V specs or better?

Engine: OS 40FP, mousse can muff.

Radio gear selection- so far:
-Hitec HS225 mighty mini's on Ailerons, (Pull-Pull).
-HS 81 Throttle
-HS 605 or 615 hi torqs on Elev and rudder. Pull pull if possible!

I need to figure out a way to put pull pull on the tail surfaces if at all possible! Who has built one? Does it have any tendencies to come out nose/tail heavy? I'm thinking of coverin in all clear monokote, with white rays on the top of the wing, is it easy lose the plane with a color scheme like that?

If there is anyone out there with a Stickit, Please post your comments and mods! Thanks
