Default RE: The Return of the Avistar RTF - Now it's Elite!

I'll have to agree with Ratshooter on the move from regular to Elite. They took what is arguably the best trainer ever made and added an extra $60 to the start up cost (when you figure in the price increase and two extra servos) that adds no value to the plane for beginners. New pilots are a big part of the Avistar's sales, so I really have to wonder if the flaps will hurt the plane's sales. How long do you guys figure it will be before Tower puts out a catalog with "Return of the Avistar!" on the cover?
