I like all the carbon fiber especially the wheel pants. The Carbon fiber spinner only arrived a day or so ago so no pics of it yet. Overall the quality of this plane is outstanding as usual!!

There are optional flying wires for the stabs but are not required. I
The torque requirements are as follows
Rudder 900oz
Per Elevator 375oz x 2 (total 750oz)
Per Aileron 375oz x 4(1500oz)

I will be using 8711 and 7955 servos on the plane (its what I have) more than enough torque and a little extra.

I have obtained a 3W240TS for this project which should arrive shortly (Thanks Mike)

I will be using an eq6 with built in turbo requlator for power distribution. for batteries TP 2200's for the ignition modules and 2 x 5000-6000mah TP for the receiver.

98.5" at 46% equals 108" at 50% so don't see why there's any reason to think it's a typo.

108" is correct, This Ultimate is designed for all out performance and to be the meanest, smallest size airframe for the very large 3W 275 powerhouse.
