Different slicers handle different types of files in different ways. Some are far more powerful than others when it comes to more complex things like batch printing, and changing settings for different types of prints. PrusaSlicer will work awesome for pretty much everything but most printed airplane files. The profiles they have are really dialed in, and consistency between Prusa printers is really good. That means you can get good prints with minimal tuning.
From your test prints, it looks like everything is functioning as it should. Any further tuning at this point would be wasted on an airplane, as airplanes tune differently than solid objects. You could probably squeeze out a little bit better solid object prints, but that takes time and experience.
The knob speeds up all the settings at once. It's just a convenience thing, mostly for slowing something down if you think it needs it, and don't want to restart the print, or mess with the slicer. You can also just crank up the speed a bit if you're in a hurry for some reason.
The hot end on your printer is an e3d v6. So you can use any e3d v6 nozzle from whatever web store you want. I recommend genuine ones. Had poor luck with the clones. Hardened nozzles are needed for printing carbon fiber filled filaments, or other things that are rough on nozzles like glow in the dark stuff. Straight brass should do well enough for most things. The nickle plated copper ones are a bit easier to keep clean. There are also options for super high temp filaments, but for the majority of people, that's not really all that useful.
Find a free plane. There are a bunch on thingiverse. I'd recommend the Northern Pike (If I'm allowed to recommend my own), as it already has G-codes calibrated for a prusa so you can start printing without any fiddling and see how it goes. Another free option, since you purchased a prusa, you can get the g-codes for the 3D LabPrint spitfire off the Prusa site. I have not flown that plane, but it is free.
Maybe try and find something that fits electronics you already have on hand. What motors do you have available?
