Default Scale body for TREX 700E

I have a TREX700E that I want to put in a scale body. I have absolutely no experience with the scale heli so I don't know which one is a good one to try out. Any suggestion ???
I like the Roban brand because I think it may be easier to build than the Funkey. Opinion is greatly appreciated.

Military or civilian? Or halfway? Personally I think the Coast Guard doesn't get enough appreciation and I would go with that.

If you like political confrontation you could go with either the sheriff or news chopper.

I just need something that is easy to build and reliable. military or civilian don't matter much to me.

I have a 700E in a Roban 206 fuse. It was my first scale helicopter. Had to make a few adjustments to the fuse so everything would fit.

You are correct on using the Roban fuselages... any with the straight tail will work easiest,, Hughes 500 or maybe a 206 Jet Ranger....
