Default Building first foamie! Need a little help

Alright everyone.. been looking for a used foamie but nobody seems to have one they want to sell for cheap so I'm gonna go ahead and build my own...

Alright I'm going to first order all my stuff for the plane. Motor, ESC, Lipo, and servos... I'm going with Hobby City to keep price low and hey, if somethin breaks I'll order another or just get one from the US haha just an experiment with the hobby city products.... So here is all the crap I'm thinking about ordering will yall tell me if they will all be good choices for this plane

http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXJTK1&P=ML I'm ordering this plane but I look at the firewall and how am I going to mount a brushless motor on here? do yall scratch build firewalls or what.... becuase right now its set up for that stupid brushed motor... ALSO if there is anymore foamies yall recommend or may be SELLING!? PLEASE let me know.. I'm not set on that plane just need one in that weight range

Ah man I want the hobby lobby yak but EVERY color scheme is on backorder until December!? dang is there anymore planes that come with JUST the plane and not a dang motor with it, just a waste of money because I'm not gonna be using it.... does anyone know where I can find a flatouts plane without the motor?? I really like them but don't wanna pay the extra for a motor im not using

I have an abellrc adrenalinev2 with 1 servo that I might be able to talk my parents into letting me sell. I'll try to post some pics if you'r interested.
