So this would be tough and fast?
Hows that connected? If Nurgle is tough and slow and these are like swarms of flies common sense dictates you need to be cheap to get the swarm effect and fly like, not like Deathguard with jetpacks.
It's simply how Blight Drones are and they should be done to match W40k/their background rather than making up our own much different stats.
They might look kind of fly-like but they don't have to be like flies in every respect. They're tough and fast but demon engines are still rare, these don't necessarily need to be cheap or to swarm in large numbers like real flies sometime do.

There are a spectrum of opinions on how to approach translating units but myself and others prefer to match W40k stats and background pretty closely to represent these units properly, rather than making up our own versions on a whim that differ from how they should play.
Blight Drones are new units in epic and IMO we should start by representing them properly and them balancing them from there by points and unit sizes or further small adjustments if needed.
