Default Kinetic 50 in Century Hughes 500

Has anyone installed a Kinetic 50 in a Century Hughes 500 fuselage? I'm thinking of making it my winter project and was wondering how easy it is to do. Things to look out for?

I know the K-50 is made up more of Hawk Pro parts then Raven parts, but the important dimensions that matter for scale is the distance from the mainshaft to the tail rotor output shaft and the depth from the bottom of the mainframe to the top of the mainframe, and where the tail boom is located on that line.

These measurements are the same as that of the Raven 50, and there are a number of fellows on the scale RR forum, who have mounted their 50 sized H-500 fuselages on Raven's, so I do not think it would be that difficult to fit the K-50 into one.

May I ask why you got the Hobbico K-50 instead of the Century Raven 50?
