New STOL CH 750 Top Window: Bigger and Better Cabin

We've made the Zenith STOL CH 750 light sport utility kit aircraft even bigger and better!
The STOL CH 750 cabin, which by all measures is already very roomy for a light aircraft, has been increased in size by raising the cabin height by nearly three inches (or 70 mm.)
The top front of the cabin (the ceiling) has been raised and is now part of the lifting surface of the aircraft (further adding to the STOL capability of the aircraft).
The cabin frame's top diagonal cross member has been replaced by two beefy smaller diagonal "hand-holds" by the front of the cabin, and the formed plexiglass top window adds to the lifting surfaces of the aircraft, to provide better STOL performance and capability.

I makes the 750 very sexy and fast.

Very interesting change that adds to the lifting surfaces of the airplane. Is it possible to incorporate such a change to the older CH701's  because I think that at high angles of attack there is some airflow disruption generarting from the top of the cabin

Roger laughing on video at 6:30! Maybe a first! Roger, you've got the best job in the world (except for all those long hours standing at the displays at OSH and Sun-n-Fun and...)

Did you attach a camera out on the cowl looking back? Pictures of the set up please!
