Elevator deflection in the 20 to 25 degree range. Balance point near the high point of the air foil. Either engine will do fine. OS MAX.35S for old school run, the FP-20 for more modern high RPM type run.

20-25 degrees is probably too much, and in any case, the total travel is less important than the rate being very very slow. That is, full hand motion to get maybe +-20 degrees, not the normal speed and a block or limits. It should also be adjustable so you can speed it up until you can *just* stall it with full hand motion, or slow it down until you can *just* stall it with full hand motion.
The rate/"travel" will need to be much less if you use a vintage engine, because it will be much more prone to stalling. 20FP is going to go like a bat out of hell when it is set correctly, under 4 seconds/lap, but it's going to be much more difficult to stall.
Please refer to very extensive previous threads about this, there's been a good half million of these things made, there is not a lot new about it.
