Hi, I just bought cheap a ep100 as350 canopy (the seller was selling it for ep200)
So is there a way to transform the ep200 to fit it into the canopy (like small boom and small blades)?Parts number?

The frames on the ep100 and ep200 are different, but not sure if that would cause any issue. The EP100 uses 160mm blades. Here are some part numbers from Gaui site.
Blades 160mm - G-203302
Tail boom EP100 - 203190
Tail belt EP100 - 861901
Hope this helps some.

Yes the as350 does not fit over the Hurri 200 v2 frame -> frame is too high So I bought one of the last ep100 std (plastic frame) box in Europe Nice machine but I will be afraid to fly it outside

hey, more ep100 flyers. I've been flying mine for almost 6 months now. I love it. I have had some issues with the plastic yoke breaking. The first one lasted hundreds of crash, the next 2 broke on the first crash, and the last pulled the threads out on spool up. I've got a couple firefox heads with the metal spindles coming now. Got a cnc 200V1 head on it now.
The stock tail shaft causes vibrations as does the white plastic main gear. I've used both the cnc tail shaft and the firefox one. Also don't run the tail hub down to the bottom of the threads on the shaft since it often cocks the hub a touch. Tighten it back against the nut.
I run my headspeed at 4100 with the plastic tail, so no worries there. This also helps with the tail, and I'm using a rcmart gyro. With a hs50 servo. Check for bent screws holding the grips to the hubs. And I gave up a long time ago with that carbon fiber tuning fork Gaui sells as a tail boom.
I get some pics of mine and post them in a bit.

PS they are discontinued, but flying hobby seems to keep coming up with the needed parts.

Yes those servos are glued to the frame, it stiffens the top of the frame a lot. I felt that the gyro behaved better when moved down on the frame. Lots of vibration in that soft plastic up there. Here's the tail, note how the hub isn't bottomed out on the shaft, and that's a firefox shaft It's on 3 cells, and I'm not real big on neat wiring. Cory
