Hello everyone, the Kickstarter project is now over and I wanted to give you all an update on the plan over the next few weeks.
Multiple Purchases
By now everyone should have received their confirmations from Kickstarter, with their reward type and payment. Please note that due to Kickstarter not permitting multiple items being purchased with one reward, this confirmation will only confirm a reward for one Flybridge. Those of you who increased your pledge and contacted me to receive more than one Flybirdge, don't worry. I have records for each an every one of you and will be shipping your confirmed quantities we discussed via email. I will be issuing the Backer Survey in the next couple of weeks where you can confirm shipping address , qty's and colors you have requested.
If anyone still wants multiple Flybridge units, please go crazy at http://flybridge.co/shop/ where we have set up a new shopping cart, you can order any quantity and color combinations you like.
Production
We are well advanced with our production, we have first article samples (T1) now from the tooling of Flybridge. So we are ahead of schedule. I should receive further samples next week in Black after the mold has its final mirror polishing. Then China will close for Chinese New Year for several weeks.
Once they come back to work, we will sample again (T2) and start shipping Flybridge with the Early Bird backers first. This will be towards the end of February, subject to any major delays with production, freight etc. I have included some bad photos below and I must stress these are first samples from the mold and require heaps more work. The plastic is not even the correct type or color. These are purely for checking fit.
Thanks again and we will update you as we progress through February with production.
