i have the same plane and i am running all hitec 645mg servos with alum arms, one the inner hole to get the best tourque and least stress on the servo, one futaba 9ch rx, one 2700nimh battery for the radio and one 1400nimh on the smoke system, i am running a g62 so i doint need a engine battery. the switch i like useing is a super-rocker switch with the led power light and built in charging jack. (they make a single or a duel battery version). and i up graded the control horns to the great planes large scale set up so i have elimated all the slopyness in the controles. i to lost the first one i had due to flutter but i found that the glue joints was very poor and the plane just came appart..
