Update on shipment to/from Filastruder

Toddimus

Wanted to check in and see what the estimated ship date would be from Filastruder in the US and/or from T3P3 to Filastruder. I realize the boards could get stuck in customs and there's a major national referendum going on in England these days.

Thanks!

Hi Toddimus

We are still on track for the dates on the batches on the website (batch 1 on the 03rd Aug 2016). We have not had issues with our bulk couriered packages to Filastruder in the past and I know Tim will be doing the best he can to get the boards out as soon as they arrive.

Without getting into too much of the politics delivery should not be affected by the referendum tomorrow. Although the market swings could make the foreign currency related elements of the procurement better or worse for us. Fortunately we have orders in place for most of the major elements so we are not that exposed to the likely market chaos if there is a vote to leave.

Cheers

Thanks Tony. I was actually asking about the pre-production boards. I bought one of those and plan to be in the beta testing group.
I should have clarified in my original post. Any update on those?

EDIT: I just spoke with Filastruder and the boards shipped out from them yesterday. Mine is supposed to arrive Friday.

Tim at Filastruder informed me that he received the pre-production boards on ~~Monday~~ Tuesday, and posted them to our US-based customers the same day. So you shouldn't have to wait long.

Sorry, I didn't noticed that the time had rolled past midnight here - Tim received and dispatched them on Tuesday, not Monday.

Delivered and it's alive! Just hooked it up to USB for now and configured the WiFi and started to update the config file to suit my Rostock Max V2.

I'll start a new thread with some observations on initial startup items.

Thanks!!
