hi,  
i'm a trial user at elasticcloud, i've started the trial following the advertised deployments low as 16$  
now i'm in the Create a deployment screen and i try to make my deployment cost effective by using 1 zone with 4GB ram, in an I/O optimized deployment  
When i try to create my 60$/mo deployment, i can't use less then 2 zones and 4GB ram (the option is disabled from the system) forcing me to deploy a 173$/mo deployment.  
i tried different locations and clouds, but no avail, if there is no cheap option, why did you advertise it as an existing option?

I am able to configure smaller clusters. Click on the `Customise Deployment` button at the bottom of the `Create Deployment` screen. This leads to a screen where you can override the defaults.
