| I doubt you will see a rush of Stratus flyers selling there brand new machines in favour of a Synergy N9. The financial loss would be huge! You give a brick with a rotor to JK orTB and they can make it fly well.
I couldn't believe my eyes at the time I saw JK fly a Fury extreme a few years ago. I also saw the demo flight at the 3D Masters of the Synergy, and didn't see anything that made it stand out from anything else.
When it is finally released, there will be a fair share of gripes and problems that the consumer will come across, you can be sure of that, and they will slowly but surely rear their heads in this forum. No model is flawless, as much I am sure that Jason and Todd are doing their best to make it a reliable machine.
I have flown for 4 years and only this year finally took the step to the Fury/Stratus after doing the rounds with many machines. I never felt so confident as the minute I put my first Fury in the air. I am totally addicted to the way these machines feel and fly, so I for one won't be rushing out for the Synergy, irrespective of any hype, comments or reports about how well or bad they fly.
Bottom line is that I think the MA 'addicts' won't be shifting from what they know and love. As for the worse model in History.......well....as a hybrid of arguably the best 3D machine produced in years - the Fury, I doubt the Stratus will earn that title. You flown one yet??
