If someone wants a 90, a Pantera is not an option. There's a lot more to a 90 than the big engine, and no matter how much power you shove into the Pantera, it'll never have the low disk loading of a 90.

I haven't owned a 700 yet, but I did see one fly last week, and I've owned a lot of Raptor 90s. Get the 700. It's significantly lighter, and is much more agile than the Raptor. Parts are dirt cheap, and the quality is much better than other Align products. That's not to say that the Raptor isn't a great heli, just that its time has passed. The 700 will be my next heli.
