Nice Julian,
These are some pointers;
You may want to carve the nose from balsa as it will see the most abuse. Foam nose will not last and difficult to cover with film.
Have you glue down the tailboom yet? It'll be easiar to glue down the V-tail fins to the carbon tail boom and glue it down the fuselage at the last part. I usually finish the wings and mount them on the fuselage before installing the tailboom/v-tail assembly, so that I can use the wings to 'eyeball' the alignment before glueing it down permanently.
Do not install the servo until you found the best way to run the 2 pushpull wire without binding. I glue a piece of balsa under each servo to raise them so that the servo horns points downwards.
