Dude, dihedral is what you should be looking at for your flying skills! You have mounted 2 servos on the dihedral wings, you have a 6 channel radio and you need to have 2 spare channels for the miscellaneous work you plan to do! It means you have to have to have a 7 channel radio or you got to connect the 2 serovos to same channel and trim manually.

also why are the servos standing? they are supposed to be sleeping.   ;)

Also the motor mount is supposed to be 2 deg right and 2 deg down. from the pics it looks like its looking up!

Seriously good effort! Some nice paint scheme and ur plane is gonna look great! :thumbsup: Use the dihedral wing to learn on and then move onto the flat wing once ur confident.. Just make sure ur motor points a few degrees down and right and ur CG is correct..
