Where are we at on the timeline?

Last I heard, this was in the production schedule, but still a ways out.

Are we in production?

Are we shipping yet?

I just wonder how much longer until I can get myself one?

Thanks.

Well, the status right now is that we are just waiting for the motors to arrive. I was in China last week, and they were finishing the motors on the production line.

There are a few hundred controllers on the production floor right now, just awaiting final assembly. They are holding off final assembly until the motors show up from China.

UPDATE: Just spoke with Kate -- and they are planning on finishing the MM XLs sometime next week.

Thanks for the reply.

My Main interest is in the controller. Will it be possible to purchase it by itself soon?

Thanks for the detailed update... I was just making my daily rounds seeing if anything new came up on the kit, I'm ready to order as soon as I am able to.. My 5T has been sitting and waiting, I feel a bit bad setting my Trevor Simpson engine aside but I know I will feel much better when I put the Castle setup in it.
