Does anyone know or has seen Ridid Flex PCB's with a metal core ( aluminium or similar? )..
I've got an application that has a bit of heat in it, and i need to get the heat out, but i also want to use flex.

Copper? Has the best thermal conductivity. You can only use a single layer of metal on a flexprint otherwise the layers will tear apart when bending. You can use multiple flexprints over each other but then you will have no thermal conductivity between the layers.

You can have flex boards with a PCB laminated to it. You can get most likely a flex board with the metal plate bonded as well.
