Are you sure that the HDX572 "is the next step up?".
I have had both and while the HDX572 looked stronger, with large diameter
tubing, the specs was rated less that the LM470 (according to my memory).
The LM470 tubing was changed a number of years ago to have stronger
strength. Check it out and be sure to compare ratings at identical wind
speeds.
