Pretty sure FRC 51 is Wings of Fire, and FRC 58 is the Riot Crew.
I think wood gets the same restrictions as anything else: use it where it's appropriate. Know the strengths and weaknesses of the material.
Wood tends to be a pretty good compositing material-- sandwich it between two metal sheets for a lighter-weight but thicker alternative to metal plates. There are all sorts of uses I can think of for wood.
