Default Any quality NON-FOAM EDF F-14 Tomcats on the market?

I've spent the last 3 hours doing an extensive search with no results. Does anyone know of any EDF F-14 Tomcats on the market that are of glass/composite build, non-foam? I've seen a few on random youtube videos which look breath-taking with no mention of which model/manufacturer. Turbine models are just out of my budget reach and EDF seems to be more practical. Any info would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks

Complexity of "Tomcat" model built of glass (composite) will be too heavy for EDF, you much better off fitting in turbines which ever way you look it at, cost wise or weight wise, not even mentioning superiority of the flight times. Nothing wrong with the foam if you are prepare to do some upgrades as I did to my foamy.
