First-batch preorder (closed Aug 17)

The first batch is open for preorder at $59.99. Preorders help decide how many units to build and whether to keep improving the controller.

Production estimate

PCB manufacturing: about 2 weeks

Boards take roughly 2 weeks to manufacture. After that, each unit is assembled, soldered, tested, placed into a 3D printed case, packed, and shipped — an estimated 4–6 weeks total for the first batch.

Tested

Hovercraft underglow mode tested

RGB underglow tested on the RC hovercraft — lit up the snow and showed the effects off clearly in low light.

Tested

Prototype tested on 5-foot RC airplane

The original prototype was tested on a 5-foot RC airplane for navigation lights, strobes, wing lighting, and night visibility.
