I'd be careful with that stand if I were you. I bought one and thought the area of the fuselage supports was too small so I added sections of high density foam that's used for pipe insulation and I build racks out of PVC and this stuff.
Even with that extra padding, when we put my H9 60cc on the stand upside down to take the wing center section off, it cracked the fuselage sheeting on the nose. I've not put another airplane on it since and I damn sure would not put one of my turbines on it. I also have the one EA sells and IIRC I paid $400.00 for it as part of a package deal for a model and turbine.
