FT Alpha EDF?

I have done one FT Alpha and an FT vector. Could either of these work with a small EDF?

A friend of mine had a scaled up Alpha that he turned into an EDF - it flew great. He started with a 50mm EDF and I believe it was scaled to 150%. Later he bumped up the EDF to 70mm and it really took off.

@Grifflyer started one at the normal size with a 50mm but he never finished it. He probably has some good suggestions though, as he has quite a bit of experience with EDF's.

You can get a 50mm to fit with a regular sized Alpha pretty easily. I never finished mine because I got distracted by other projects. But everything was looking promising from what I remember.
thnx. I will either do Viggen, or upsize an Alpha and see how it comes out
