Well, with all your doubts, It is clear you are a very beginner in R/C.

So...Welcome in R/C Community and greetings from RcIndia.

I won't answer Half of your questions as they are already answered thousands of time in and out of this forum. Just hit a search on top right side of RCI. Just read, read & read. Believe me, It would help you about everything in R/C.

By the way...

c) g stands for gram (unit to measure weight).
d) 5g should be good for your purpose. (5 to 9g are also known as Micro Servos, Don't get confused.)
f) Yes. It would. Well, There is no strict compatibility limitation of Radio with basic R/C Electronics.

You can answer a, b & e yourself just after a thorough study of how things work. Another bit of tip, Go for a simple Trainer plane, Don't fall in "Fighter Jet" hypes in the early stage. Get hang of R/C flying on simulator. Build, Crash, Repair, Crash and modify....This is what we call the real R/C scratchbuilding.

I hope it helps.

Thanks.
Cheers.

I think u should go for at least 20 to 30 amp ESC . 10 amp will be less and would fry...
Safe to go with 30 amp
