The ailerons look about right for the size of the wing. The faster it flies, the less control movement is needed.
HobbyKing recommends an 8040 or 7035 for the 2204-14T, so a 6x4 may be a little small for 2S. On the other hand, it'll certainly help keep the current draw down on 3S.
It sounds like you're going through a similar learning curve to me. I did a lot of research, ordered a bunch of stuff and it's still sitting in my parts bins today.
Don't get discouraged. The lessons I've learned along the way were well worth the extra hardware in the end--and I'll find a home for it at some point. The whole community here is very helpful and encouraging, so if I can't help you there will be someone else who can.
With that said, what can I do to help?
Sorry friend--not even on the same continent. I live in Ashcroft, BC Canada.
I recently extended my cold-weather flying down to -15C. I ordered the Turnigy Transmitter Glove and HobbyKing Universal Heater system. It works great on the 2S 2200mAh batteries I have, but only lasts about 15 minutes before the low voltage alarm I place on the balance lead goes off. It's enough time to walk to or from work (I usually fly one of my Old Fogey's to/from work). It has however, been windy enough to ground me this past week. I'm starting to make headway on other projects, so it's been a good thing.
Cheers!

Hello Randall
I thank you for your help.
I am going to check the comments on this thread and try to order a new power system for my project. Also, i am about to order the recommended props because even if they do not work on this project, they will be useful for the next one.
Ill keep this thread fed with my experiences.
Concerning your heating gloves, i suggest you built a harness so you can have two batteries paralleled. This will eventually double your heating time ;-)
This is something i had to do for my Align Trex 500 to get enough flight time.
