I did not FCF on Maya even she sits on 1st fleet (I put her on 6th spot even before my light carriers). I use 20.3 mm / 12.7 HA / concentrated 30mm AA / German radar on her. I flag with Yamato and put the FCF on her. Part of the reason is that Yamato will hit very hard just with 2 guns, and she is THE most expensive ship to fix. Flagging her reduce the risk she get shot, so she can punch out her guns at full power while keeping my cost low.

One thing I find that would make both E-6/7 somewhat easier is to use 2 AACI ships. I use Maya at back and Akizuki at front. You can do decent AA cuts in with Fubuki K2 or Ooyodo (Ooyodo is probably not recommended for E-7... Abukuma or Jintsu Kai II will do a lot better in attacking, and you need that against boss and the funny 400 HP bast**d). The AA cut-ins can work well to survive those Wo nodes, and you want to have high confidence that someone will trigger it.
