Miniature Aircraft Nitro/Gas Helicopters > Blade question

This maybe a dumb question beceause I'm new to this hobby, but it would be irresponsible of me not to ask this and just assume.

My aircraft:
XL Fury Expert
OS 70
No governor
9.3:1 GR

Can I use 660mm V-blades on this heli?
Would there be anything to gain, or would I be endangering something on the craft?

The reason I ask is because, since I'm new, I don't have the best collective management and am forever bogging out my engine causing my tail blades to slow down and the heli to spin. I heard that V-blades are some of the best but they "grip" the air alot and bog down engines like crazy. 690s seem to be rather popular for the extreme's, but they have 90 size engines. Or should I go ahead and spend the extra money to upgrade the ship to a 90 size?

Like I said, I am new... I just decided to go with the best brand as soon as I could.

There's nothing wrong with your "70" size machine. I'd use 680mm blades if I were you.
