Looks like a durable New orbital with high opm. Anyone got any facts or likes/dislikes about this machine?

Heard from a reliable source that it's a bit weak. Go with the Rupes MKII 15.

Have the boss and Mark2, doesn't make scenes that the FORCED ROTATION is less than the orbital, FORCED ROTATION does legit work. I love my boss more than any other orbital I've used. T

I liked the feel of the machine, but think I like my G21 more

May get the new forced rotation unit with a 5in BP

The new flex D/A uses a 6- 6.5 pad

Me too, read somewhere it stalls quite easily,kinda reminds me of Rupes stating high power wattage doesn't equate to a powerful tool, just inefficient energy consumption.

So you like the Boss over the MarkII also?

I was thinking of upgrading my G21 to a Mark II but the mini comparison Rasky posted made me think otherwise

I talk to Chad(Rasky) all the time and he told me that the Mark II 21 has noticeably more balls(more powerful) than the G21. I think he likes the ergonomics of the G21 better, though.

They should give Rasky the new Flex's to test and review as his one of the few people's opinions I trust and know it will be an unbiased review.

Again, agree 100%

The new 15mm throw XFE Flex unit is not a forced rotation machine like the 3401 or the new XCE unit out in about a month.
