David,
I STRONGLY recommends you the Kangi, which is the F3D from Super Kraft ( www.kangkeeusa.com), the cost is very low, just US$158.00.
I builded one, is all fiber composite.
I putted a OS. 46.VRF Ducted Fan ( purple head). It turns a 7.4 x 8.5 carbon fiber APC at 25K RPM!
The kit call for a .30, so some modifications have to be made, basically removing the actual fire wall and installing a new an stronger one. I cutted the fuselage a couple of inches to not affect the CG.
The plane flies at almost 200MPH. It beated a Hot Spot with a Ram 500.
The wing need reinforcement only at the tips, because is laminated.
Regards,
Miguel.
