Awesome news! :) ...hope there will be a max of 1 board/costumer though  :unsure:

Because of the shipping expense from Australia, I was going to do a max of 2. What I really want to watch for is the people that just buy them to stick on eBay and turn a quick profit, the idea of OP is community so that is the people I want to try and look after first.

It's fairly easy to sort out the forum members from the non-forum members for example and then we have the people with diamond awards etc. This is the fairest way, the people with real interest and that are looking to help us get helped first.

Dave.  Are you planning to run the same process as before ie, post an interest on the forum and then you unlock a buy opportunity in the store until the numbers are filled?

I don't know yet, honest I must go for whatever is easier and least time consuming, I have so little time these days and OP eats in to way more that I can afford :( I still have a lot of heli testing work to do and have not even had a chance to really start it.

The people that will come first of course are going to be the guys that help OP, this is natural, after that whatever is easier on the team here. Apart from that we still have some UI bugs to sort out and general polish to add for the release, so this time software could delay things.

You guys are funny :)

Just want to say this: there are 200 CC3Ds on order, as soon as they get back and they work, a further 500 will be ordered. The first 200 should be 3 weeks away, delays and other things can happen but that is the time scales I am working too.

We did only 200 to start with to minimize risk of course but we for sure don't want to see this happen to people. I love the CopterControl, it;s a great board I can kinda understand why it goes on eBay for the same cost as the Naza but this is clearly nuts!

Retail price of the CC3D is going to be A$84.95 in the global store if all goes well, the new longer serial cable included and of course the RC cable. We also have newer boxes which cost a bit more but look better and are far stronger.

I have a 600 (Raptor 50E) on 12S, scares the crap out of me, a 700 is just well, wow.

Hope to get a cheap Gasser in the air soon though, so maybe the 700 can be a donor for that with some of the 3rd party gasser modification.
