I'd agree, but my goal is to keep it above the earth... 
And of course, avoid making it the best heli under the Earth at all costs.
My first impression was similar - amazingly smooth and stable. Except mine wasn't so rich - I destroyed my first piston, sleeve, and ring in a couple of minutes.
After fixing that (and getting the engine in and out was far easier than I thought it would be), flight resumed with a much less lean needle.
I did find a slow wobble in it, but that was quickly resolved: You know those static cling stickers they put on Radix blades to keep 'em from rubbing together? Well, it was my first pair of Radix blades, and I didn't know they were there. Guess what happens if you forget to remove 'em... 
My only complaints are with the canopy mounts: The stock bolts are a couple mm too short, and I've worn out canopy grommets before flying them.
