Default F4i tail conversion for an F2

How hard is it to switch the single seat of a F2 to the split seat of F4i? And is there a How To on this anywhere?

There's 2 ways to do it:
1. Cut the subframe off the F2, and weld in brackets to mount in the subframe from a F4i.
2. Modify the F2 sub to fit the F4i tail. Also, you'll have to fabricate mounts for both seats.

I'm not sure if there's a tutorial on here for it or not, but either option is a fair amount of work. I just did the swap (I went with option #1), and it cost me $750 because I don't know how to weld.

Well looks like #1 is the way to go for me. I have some people that know how to weld so hopefully it will just cost me parts and beer. Can the electronics just be transfered over to the new tail (i.e. computer) and be ok in the same place? or will I have to find a new place for them?
