I also order a lot from giantcod, fast service and good prices! No tax or whatever and low shipping rates to Belgium.
@Noxus: if you need any help just send me a PM. Belgium is a small country so we can't live far away from each other can we?

Even if i believe i missed this extra batch i must give it a try. :)
I was lucky to get one board from Flyingwings back in Juli and got it flying.
But during a test flight a few weeks later i lost it during a test flight because of a combination of wind, pilot error and lack of failsafe with the original 9x (i had a FrSky module in the mail but not installed).
I have been trying to get a new CC after that but with no luck, i got all the parts i need for a new quad and hexa, just missing a CC board.
I don't know if there is any boards left or if i can qualify to buy one, but it would really make my day. :wub:

No one has missed anything yet, I'm keeping an eye on this thread and will be sending people PMs in a few days, just really really busy so bear with me. I will handle these after the distros get their boards, EU, Ukraine, CA & Rusty's have shipped, Mats will be leaving today and still waiting on a reply from Lucien who is out of town.

I know some people having been trying to get a CC for months, I really feel bad about it and I hope to try and correct it.

God bless you!
I was on the Rob's mailing list (Flyingwings) since August.
Thank you in advance to satisfy our envy to fly your good CC.

Cheers

Hello,

I have not been on any waiting list, since I came to know about the project only a few weeks ago.
I have a custom made frame waiting for a brain to plug in.

Since I have still have to develop some special flight control software, as explained here, I can wait for a next batch, or ideally for the Revo boards to come up :) .
However, having a CC board would definitely keep me motivated for developing the software, since I would be in touch with the Real thing, and could test the result of my work.

So, in the highly improbable event that you have enough CC boards, I would definitely love to be able to get one :rolleyes:
Anyway if there's not enough boards, then... I'll buy clones :angry: !

Aha, just joking, I would only keep developing the software and wait kindly until the next batch (or perhaps even later)

Cheers !

this seems to be a real opensource project.
and i would not buy a clone!
as my hw 'shrinks' i would buy a board.

just figuring out how to tell lpcxpresso to produce output for stm mcu's :o

I am certainly interested, but don't absolutely need one. I have been sharing a board with a mate that works offshore opposite me :D

thanks for the offer. i have one board and it works great. i'm trying to get another one or two for my more tech savy friends that have built wii/seeduino boards for me and repaired them for me after mishaps :) when i first started doing multi rotor since i lack the skill/knowledge to build flight controllers.  i of course have my current board and would love to have more but i definitely think getting boards to folks that have never had the chance to even get their first board would take priority over me.   my buddies that have built controllers for me could likely contribute more to this project than myself so i thought if i gave them a board as a gift it would both help the project and help me repay them for all the controllers they have helped me with.   i have been wondering what else i can do to help the open pilot project as i have no special programming or board building skills ? i guess just offering advice to other newcomers on the forum and with my local flying club.  so far everyone i've mentioned this two seems fascinated with the project !  the latest thing i'm doing for fun is building two identical quads with the same frame, motor, esc, etc and then putting the open pilot board in one and using one of my friends wii controllers in the other so we can see who can tune the quad to fly the best.  that's a great way to challenge ourselves and get lot of fun out of just one open pilot board!

Hi David,

After trying to get a board for 6 months now,this is the best news I had in weeks. Please sign me in on the list.

I had giving up hope to get a board ever. I almost lost all interest in the project due to all the delay. But i couldn't ressist to watch the forums over and over again. I'll certainly hope its going to happen now.

David, keep up the good work and hopefully I can contribute to the project in the future.

Mine still isn't working, so I was hoping to get a new one as well. Guess I'm having to try everywhere to buy a new one as soon as they are available.
