With a full RDS when you remove the slider you have to collect in the bag and pilot chute also. I am using full RDS on my Leia 69 at the moment and going to terminal. I haven't noticed any difference in openings. Downside is it takes more time to collect in when trying to negotiate traffic and is quite a lump to stuff down your jumpsuit if you dont have a pocket for it. Upside is performance and it looks better on Flocking pics.
