Eddie I Like What you are Doing so far .. I have a book "Gas engines Giant Planes" By Don Apostolico He is the author and Owner of Dons Hobby http:www.donshobbyshop.com click on this link . I have this book and have read it front to back.. It is 100% concentrating on 30% to 40% Models and all their special needs.. It is a very good book and I would be glad to help you with your plane and lend you this book to read ... The first thing he teaches ... is "throw out your 40 to 60 size model ideas" Thease are big planes. everything is different . And as you read the book and ask questions you will realize it. But the end result is worth it the bigger plane really do fly a lot better ... Let me know (Advice, Parts) what you need ... Ill help you.. Nacho Pulido
