Don't put all caps "BREAKING" at the start of your title. Pretty much all the posts in this community are new news, so it's redundant. Plus it's annoying and screams of being thirsty for upvotes. And on top of that, this was already posted here several hours ago, so it isn't even breaking news.

Plus have great maintenance flexibility, great endurance and can land on a potato field.

They would be so welcome here.
