Default Extended Tail Fin for my 600

I have a 600E Pro DFC. I have the 700 landing gear strut on the rear to give the heli a forward lean when it is sitting on the ground. I do this for looks but mostly to keep the tail higher off the ground when I'm landing and taking off because I'm going to be running 105mm blades pretty soon.

I want to put a longer tail fin to help protect the longer tail blades. So far I've held the 700 tail fin up to a 600 and noticed it was only about a 1 cm longer (which would be long enough because the new tail blades are only a cm longer), but I want one a little longer than that, like an inch longer than a standard 600. Does anyone have any ideas on what tail fin would work?

I have fixed a foam ball (bright yellow in colour) like the ones supplied on 450 size training kits. That certainly helps with tail blade safety as well as heli orientation.

I screw a Futaba round servo arm on the tails of my 550s and 600s
