Welcome and congrats on completing their program. Do a search for #009 ftoy and you'll get some ideas. As far as bastardizing a Ftoy frame with EB junk...well that's up to you but you won't be considered for competition.

I agree with Fatty,F-4's are the way to go, strong, durable, easy to work on, and reasonably cheep to build and maintane.
