Whoa, that's a lot of questions!
@timbo63, This could be a good second plane after you master the cub but, it's fast yet stable. On low rates the plane will fly scale like and high rates it's fully aerobatic. The spit is more stable then the mustang but, the T-28 is worth all the money I spent. They really did some homework with the stiff and thick foam work.
zeta30, I was flying stock with the 11.1v 1800mah 3s and it was a rush. I think the 11.1v 2200mah 3s battery upgrade for this plane would be a overkill. the landing gear is really solid and the nose wheel can take a good slam without any signs of weakness.
cjg, I haven't had any problems with radio gear, ESC or other. It was some things that I hot glued because, I was unhappy with the factory glue. There are some legit problems and some self caused ones too. I've read some threads and some people crashed due to rushing without a good pre-check.
My problems with the plane.
I the middle of the plane were the fuselage halves meet up they did not glue it. It's fine without but, I thought about the cub after weak spots appear. So, I hot glued it and the area above the battery holder. The magnet that holds the canopy down came loose from the foam. They put that gue glue on and strapping tape over top. So, I fixed it with hot glue and the prop adapter was installed from the factory with the screw out of the grove. You know the grove on the motor shaft, it caused small vibration. So, I took it off and installed it the right way.

Bigger motor? This thing is a rocket already on a 1800mah 11.1v stock lipo, did you see my vid? I think it would be a overkill with the upgrade option of 2200mah.
