OK, I've put the plane together using the 8g servos and one of the 30A ESCs from the same order. I've also used the stick mount to attach a 1200kv KD-A2210 (a high quality Hobbyking sourced motor). I had to be creative with how I used it though.
The plane is essentially a copy of the Lanyu EPO ME109, which is a copy of the Guanli EPS ME109, which is a copy of the GWS ME109. The paint is the glossy, flaky stuff. This has come off in little cracks here and there. I'm not going to complain too much about them, but the paint job is definitely going to look a bit shabby after a few months of regular flying... Never mind. Also similar to the above mentioned manufacturers, CoG is not achievable without modifying some hard to reach firewall so the battery can slide far enough forward. The props that came with it are monstrous 10x4.7 and put out some serious thrust with the motor I've picked. They're also absolutely perfectly balanced out of the packet.
The servos seem to be OK. They don't twitch or do other silly things (yet). I was impressed that the ESCs and motor came pre-soldered (with a Deans and 3.5mm connectors), and the motor came with a full accessory pack, including connectors for the ESC! The ESCs are a but chunky. They look like the classic job of sticking heatsinks on lower rated units. I haven't fired up the motor yet, but it looks pretty good quality.
I'll let you know how the maiden goes, but I think I've gone beyond the realms of the purchase experience. The stuff is reasonable quality, reasonably promptly posted and dirt cheap. I'd have to say I'm happy.

I really liked the motor in the Bixler, so I've ordered a new one from Leader.
