Happy with Airmaster with Warp Drive blades.  Have 660 hours.  It is computer 
controlled
with manual override and works well requiring no close attention...that
is it is not a complication,just set cruise or climb or takeoff.  I damaged
a prop blade and was able to get replacement promptly.

is cheaper and as a first timer I want to keep things simple, so that has
some appeal. The importer also kindly mentioned that he does not have good 
experiences
with the CS setup, which is either refreshingly homest or an indication
of a dud product.
