Default Which 18m FES sailplane to buy?

Only slightly off topic:

How is the cockpit ventilation in an FES equipped glider? The big electric motor just behind the vent in the nose must interfere with the airflow. In the D2c, does the swiveling ball vent on the rightside of the cockpit get much airflow? And when the motor is running, how hot does it get in the cockpit when you are getting air that just cooled the motor?
