This thing is huge. Witch family is it ??
If i was to guess i would say Pisauridae. Heteropoda sp. does sound familiar but i can't remember witch family it's from.
I'm guessing Pisauridae cuz that spider is very similar to the Pisaurina genus but like 2-3 times bigger . 
Thx for posting those awesome pics.

How interesting that she remained suspended from the abdomen area as to not drop to the substrate.... is that done deliberately?
Way cool man.
