Hello<\/p>\n

Our apologies for a long time since the last update.<\/p>\n

here is what happened since the last update:<\/p>\n

1. We managed to meet with Prime Minister of Poland and Casey Neistat!<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_H-UnmiMc3s&feature=youtu.be&t=220<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Very first X-TANKCOPTER went to Casey.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We were lucky to be\u00a0part of this event and we\u00a0are glad that Casey took time to sign few posters for us. Those will be available during the campaign, but we have only\u00a0a few of them, so if any of you is a fan and wants to get one, you have to be quick.<\/p>\n

2. Unfortunately we had a massive delay with finishing the campaign video (it took us two months), but finally, this part is done.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

3. We finished all the graphics and text related to the crowdfunding campaign\u00a0pitch. So now we are applying the last changes and working on the\u00a0strategy.<\/p>\n

4. New arms were designed and tested. The biggest advantage of them is the fact they increase the drone clearance by 137%, at the same belt size. In accordance with that, we designed new wheels for more demanding terrain.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The change did not involve\u00a0adding too much of the extra weight, only 1.5 g, so the flight endurance, agility etc. are staying as they were, but off-terrain performance\u00a0has increased\u00a0significantly especially in outdoor use.<\/p>\n

5. We negotiated better prices with factory (at cost of higher volume order) so we can make the drone even cheaper. In addition to that\u00a0we will have a special price for the early backers on IndieGoGo, so do not miss out on that promotion as the price difference will be significant.<\/p>\n

What will happen\u00a0next?<\/h5>\n

1. Refunds will be issued to all of you by the end of the next week. We kindly ask you to support us on the Indiegogo campaign.<\/p>\n

2. The crowdfunding campaign will go live next Friday.<\/p>\n

3. We already managed to arrange the deposit for the first order to the factory, so the production will start soon, we only need to confirm the situation with the new arms to see if there is still a chance to implement them into the current model ( otherwise they will be shipped separately). It is a technically difficult task and may be costly as the tooling is already made.\u00a0 In any scenario, we will start the shipment\u00a0of the models immediately after the campaign ends.<\/p>\n

We would like to kindly ask you for help. If you could please share our YT video among your friends, family, over social media, hopefully, this way we could gain more attention, as the project depends on the success of this campaign.<\/p>\n
