Please note that the Cabri was not designed as a R22 replacement but rather specifically as an initial trainer for EC types. So the fenestron with its typical control feel as well as the clockwise MR are both no shortcomings but rather selling points.
Granted it does seem like this fenestron generates issues that others don't. Granted that the Cabri is no competition to the S300, it's just less capable regarding a couple of aspects. But it was obviously not designed as S300 competition either.

Please also note that every accident without injuries is not bad press for Bruno G., it's the best promo he can get!
