This is great info.

I think we can all agree that the flite v2.1 has more bells and whistles, but I'm searching for a comparison of how they feel in the skin.

@ Tattoo junk : If the flite still hits softer with the hardest bar, does it hit hard enough? Are you referring to the hardest spring bar that comes with it, or the rigid bar that's sold separately?

Is there something "special" about the thunder that I'm not aware of? Does it work like any other high end hard hitting direct drive? Or did they find a perfect sweet spot for speed/torque?
