Hi Sam, the Elete has a tear drop shape that cuts through the air with less resistance. The main rotor shaft is tilted forward more than the 162F and Talon which allows the body to fly more streamlined than the earlier and later models because the tail is not sticking up into the air flow but is tucked in behind the body reducing drag. It was a much better design than the present body but when BJ Schram lost the company in bankruptcy the molds and jigs for the Elete disappeared mysteriously so the new owner, Bob Netherwood, only had the molds and jigs for the Exec so he made changes to the landing gear, main rotor shaft and doghouse and named it the Exec 90.
