They announced the HX50 will be classified as experimental-amateur built (E-AB) but built at the factory with assistance and would allegedly take only two weeks to do. By not certifying it, that allows them to dramatically reduce costs and build up revenue from being able to sell it much earlier. If/when they're eventually able to offer a certified one (like originally intended), they're going to call it the HC50.
