The hardware is MK type, for the price the Element 170 is a great value.

Status: offline 		The Element 170 is all over the Fliton site,...

The wood ARF version anyway,...$600.00 + shipping,...great deal!

The ARF pre-painted composite is not on the site,..special order only and 2K,...waiting on mine at the moment,...end of September for me.


I am looking forward to the build threads for both versions and the flight reports!

Status: offline 		Yes it will accept both,...but you will have to use the Dave Brown isolation beam mount. I have hard mounted both engines and they are fine,...but the Dave Brown mount "should work better.

I used one on an Icepoint several years ago with a OS-140 RX and it work just fine,...I changed out the engine later to an OS-160 hard mounted and it was just fine. If you hard mount the motor you may have to make some shim's out of 1/8 ply or equal. The mount should work fine for either one,.....Central Hobbies should have it?

Status: offline 		The Arf composite construction can be found on page one of the thread,.....it's a composite sandwich of balsa, carbon fiber,..etc.
As soon as mine gets here I will post some photos for everyone. If someone already has one of the new ARF composite's, perhaps we could get some detailed photos.
