Default RE: Seagull Decathlon maiden flight

I'm pulling that fuel tank out now. I have triangle plywood that I will cut into small pieces - I'll probably put 6 pieces - and will epoxy all the corners.

I toed in the wheels a few degrees - that fixed the ground control issue. I just need to apply some Right rudder while rollling out and off she goes. Up high I figured out how slow I can go till she wants to stall. It's pretty slow - and with flaperons it's too slow. With flaperons its a floaty landing. I'm getting good vertical with the OS FS 70S II w/ 12x6 Master. Will I bog down the motor if I use a 12x8?
