I need a little advice from those who have converted to a Stratus. I currently have a tempest (carbon extreme frames) with the extreme head. I was not going to bother to convert to a Stratus since it was flying SO well, but a recent unscheduled upgrade opportunity presented itself (oops), so since I had to tear down so far I am rethinking the conversion. For those that have flown both a tempest/extreme and Stratus, does the Stratus offer enough benefits in flight and/or maintenance ease to make it worth the upgrade, or should I just rebuild. The frames weren't damaged, so I don't really need to do it, but I really like a few of the changes to the Stratus. Any opinions appreciated!

Thanks,

Bonsai,

Thanks for the info. I think I am going to go ahead and do it. I just like a lot of the Stratus changes.
