Default Prop placement...different configurations.

I've just purchased a Superfly-E which, for those of you who don't know, is a basic delta wing. Within the instructions there are two configurations for the prop; puller and pusher. The question that I have is, are there any marked differences in performance between the two configurations. I'm leaning towards the pusher configuration since I would tend to think it might save on prop and engine damage (since the prop wouldn't necessarily be the first thing to hit the ground). But does this degrade the ability for the wing to perform aerobatics and such? Will it affect power? Will it affect stability? Any info is greatly appretiated.
