Re: double pedal..
Once you build the initial coordination and strength in your weak leg, any adjustments after that should take relatively little time to build up to. I don't know you personally so I can't estimate how long it'll take you at first, but I can say the more you put into it, the faster it'll go.
I personally don't do a lot of plain fast stuff on double bass (most my blasts are single foot). I like using it for rhythms more.
Hi hat... I've never owned a drop clutch or anything similar. I did have an auxiliary hat for a while but I found it to be superfluous. I never open my hats much to begin with so they're never open too far for playing them while I'm working away at double bass. It just depends on how you want to set it up.
