I wasn't so sure, but the missus's enthusiasm has tipped me over.

But I'll think I'll stick with my old adage, never buy the first major make or major model change.

Ps. Agreed on the parachute, I see the small fly like a car models have them installed for peace of mind (Ditches the engine and pops the plane chute). No auto-rotation either... but I think your relying on ground effect a lot in the pictures.
