2b, or not 2b?

I have two real concerns with the Brantley, but they're moot for those looking at a privately owned and operated machine;

1. The blades appeared able to cut me in two just under my ribs. There is no rotor brake that I'm aware of, therefore......

2. At MGW, it was thoroughly gutless. Either it wasn't set up properly or all those hinges occupy enough power to make the book optimistic.

Very smooth though, autos are a dream as well.
