Consider using the SynchroLite fuselage, complete with central tube etc.

Three point mounting to the power train. One below the swashplate and two at the gearbox.

Consider making the cockpit the same or similar to that of the SynchroLite. Or better yet make it slightly larger. Make it somewhat like the Helicycle.

Tail Boom:

Attaches to power train frame, behind prppeller. Quick removal.

Long tail boom for stability.

Horizontal Stabilizer:

Use an inverted asymmetrical profile.

Vertical Stabilizer:

Thin symmetrical profile.

The upper segment to be a single layer of fiberglass over a light foam core. The threads of the fiberglass to be in the same plane of the rotor blade, should it ever get that low. This will allow the blade to easily chop a portion of the upper VS off while not affecting the remainder of it or the lower VS.
