No you don't! The Ultra Stick comes with two sets of ailerons so you can set it up in a standard setup (5 servos, 1 in each wing) or with flaps/spoilerons. If you want all the bells and whistles you will need a computer radio and 7 servos (2 in each wing) You can use a standard radio with a reversing Y-harness on the ailerons to fly it in the standard setup and it will fly great.
I have owned and flown both the .40 and .60 sized Ultra Sticks. I gave the .40 size one away to a young man in my club who needed to step up from his trainer and he has about 50 flights on it. I still have the .60 which I think is the better flyer of the two, but they are both great airplanes and I would recommend them both. My .40 sized Ultra Stick had an old Webra Blackhead .40 on it when I had it. It flew with plenty of power but it was certainly not a 3-D machine. The young man I gave it to put an O.S. Max .46 FX on it and really woke it up! It seems to like the extra power so lean towards a .46 or .50 when you choose the engine.

. . and I'll third the Ultra Stick!
I've flown mine with 2 and 4 stroke engines from 46 to 91 and it flies great with all of them!
