yes absolutely i use this combo and recommend it highly much more so than max as we are architects and staying in our CAD environment and being able to render/animate as well as model far beyond the capabilities of max(model wise) is good for us, i find.
if i had more time and was not so busy i would be playing with Fryrender and Brazil(i always keep the new Beta loaded)
i started using Maxwell after Flamingo and watch out for Flamingo nXt.
bug the Indigo (free hi quality render engine) people to write a updated plug in for the new RDK too if you can
