I think the lightest setup is one pull pull servo for both elevator halves and one pull pull servo for the rudder.

DP recommended two 5245's for each aileron.
I agree a 30cc or so engine would probably do quite well on the DP I had one with a Moki 210 that flew well but a little heavy, I also tried a ZDZ 50 and it was WAY too much power and WAY too heavy. I had a little trouble with the 5245's I blew the outboard servo twice had them fairly well matched but the 52's were very easy to burn up in my experience......blew one up setting up a throttle once overdrove it just a little and let the smoke out of it.
