You dawg! (nice avatar to go w/ the beast) I ended up 'only ' w/ an XL HDE, though it will have a few new metal bits in the head, thanks to my ham fisted assembly.

I'm gonna run the same setup as yours.

It looks massive compared to the Blade.

I think I'm going to be really afraid of crashing this one with all the assembly time, not to mention the money involved.
