Default T-Rex vs. Shogun 400

I'm looking to get one of these CP electric helis in the near future, and wanted to get some feedback from anyone who actually owns & flies one or both of these helis.

After reading some previous comparison threads, my take on their differences are as follows...

Shogun: smaller, lighter, more fragile, shaft driven tail, tail not driven in autorotation

T-Rex: larger, heavier, more rugged, belt driven tail, tail driven in autorotation

Does this pretty much sum it up? If you have any additions or corrections to this list, I'd like to hear them! Based on this summary, it sounds like the T-Rex might be a little more stable outdoors with a little wind (being larger/heavier), while the Shogun sounds like it might be more agile, and have longer runtimes for a given LiPo pack (being smaller/lighter). I'm looking at the HeliProz combos for both...

As far as my experience goes... I currently have about 150 flights on my Raptor 50, but I'm not into inverted flight or 3D flight yet... plan to get there this year, though!
