Awesome. I just read the last paragraph and it's exactly what I wanted to see in there. :)
Of course I'll read the rest of the article later. :)

yes, the article does contain a number of discrepancies: 181 kg weight, not to mention the claim that the engine is turned around backwards to mount in the 818.
