I have known Alex for about 6 years, an he's a man of is word. What Fliton is doing, is testing the Pattern Market.
The Element 170 is a bigger version of the smaller Element 30.The Element 170 will be sold is Limted Qty, 150 will be shipped to Japan, and 30 will come to the USA. There will be 2 version,
the ARF 170 all wood and the Composite 170 version,that you have to paint and cover. Fliton USA in CA
is in the middle of moving to a bigger warehouse,an that's the reason the 800- number is out of
service. On a side note that's Ralph Depalma, on the cover of RC AIR World, Go Dist 7
