Chris ... I would love to see how you will install the motor, C50 or outrunner?

RE: Fliton Element 170
 

That's Fantastic,.....let's get them going!:D I will do a thread on the composite ARF version,......unless someone else would like to do it?:D

RE: Fliton Element 170
 

does anyone know the composite layup?

is it a foam or balsa sandwich or something else?

RE: Fliton Element 170
 

Hey Derek
I'm waiting for you to finish, the composite one that you have.

RE: Fliton Element 170
 

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.:D

RE: Fliton Element 170
 

Well I checked the sites,..............www.fliton.com is still up and running. The www.flitonstore.com is probably being converted or upgraded as it indicates to the new site.;)

Alex sent me some concepts photos for the new web page,...www.flitoncompetition.com a few weeks ago,..I am guessing that's what's going on. The e-mail,...don't know,...he always responds back, sometimes quickly,...sometimes in a few days?[8D]

I hope all is well.

RE: Fliton Element 170
 

Unfortunately Alex had trouble last weekend at the contest and was unable to fly it during the contest. I believe Troy flew the plane on Friday and was happy with it - I'm going on 2nd hand information here. I do know that several are being built and should be flying VERY soon.

RE: Fliton Element 170
 

Thanks for the info Derek,....perhaps Troy could share with me some tib-bits of the flight?:D




Regards,
Bill H.
