I am not sure where that comes from.
I was under the impression flex funding implies they had all the resources they needed. So even an order for 1 unit will get built because they are already building it. There is video of working unit.
I thought the whole point of crowdfunding campaigns was to deal with those situations where you had a good idea but needed a minimum ammount of committed funds to make it viable to move forward and where eaither more traditional funding routes had failed or the creator didn't want to give up control.
Flexible funding always strikes me as missing the point of a crowdfunding campaign and treating the crowdfunding site as merely an advertising and preorder site.
