Default Radio and weight for park flyer

If I were to build a light park flyer, would I want to choose a micro radio combo, or the normal kind (with like a 8 ch reciever and 4 servos) in other words, what weight would be appropriate and wingsize for that type of radio combo?

Normally your battery will weigh as much as the airplane. Use the more modern mico receiver and micro servos. One standard servo weights as much as 4 micro servos and the receiver only weighs grams whereas the standard receiver will weigh ounces.
