Then I repeat, you're not ready for a 60-size glow P-51 You're in a completely different league. If you're a good flier with your electrics, get an intermediate 60-size trainer - then once you're used to it, the engine and all of the servos will work in the P-51

Well I tell you some thing
The plane you are talking about is nothing like you are flying . You have more power and a lot faster control than an electric. As for the servos, the 46 is about the standard size for all radios and will work on planes up to 120 size. Your mimiture survos are for small plane's that do not weight much, and have what they call low wing loading.You are looking at a whole different type airplane, and a big let down.
Just to let you no what can happen
my 30 year old P51 lasted 3 minutes[:@]

Some planes are like an epoxy flying brick. Think of a 72mhz radio with bad reception. First, you're flying strait and then you have to bring it back in. So you cut the throttle and the wing drops in an instant. If you know what you're doing, you apply rudder before you blink and chances are, you recover. Some may not be so lucky. The standard advice at the field, is that you have to fly it all the way down the runway until you are stopped. To someone with enough experience, it's second nature. If you aren't familiar with anything but foam electrics, then a very unpleasant surprise awaits.
