400 bucks is not that bad for people who have more money than time.

I see alot of people that seem to be flying beyond there skill level, because they want that cool plane and not that boring trainer. When you can buy an advanced flyer and have it flying the next day, there going to do it, even with a great chance of crashing. Keep flying your trainer until you can almost fly it with your eyes closed and can't do anything more with it before you start flying the Twist.
