I own a 400 since 1 year, not too much experience but I think that if you get all the new upgrade that they did over the year you are getting a good ship for the price, I'm 6'2 190 pound with a 200 pound instructor, full fuel, 90 degree in Florida and plenty of power.
The biggest recent upgrade is the new transmission, so far I think I'm the only one flying with it ( I put about 60 hour on it it the last few month )
I'm new into helicopter , just realize that its a small world especially experimental, so I open to share any info or experience that I have.
