I still consider it a worthwhile investment, but a big factor in the decision was the trip I took to see FDS in Canada. Meeting Peter and Steve and seeing the shop sealed the deal for me. They were both fantastic guys and the amount of work going on there is very impressive. When I someday move to the full-size MIP, I will go with FDS, no questions.
