Question Do I have a proper electrical component build?

Hello, I am a senior in high school who is planning to build a my own RC Airplane for an engineering project,
I am wondering if the parts I have selected are completely compatible with each other.
I'm planning on a relatively cheap build. All feedback would be greatly appreciated!

I'm planning to use insulation foam from Home Depot as my fuselage and wings, with little bits of wood for support.
