It's going to be tested and tweaked until it works great. We want our products to work well so it's hard to give an eta, atleast we cannot guarantee anything. We want a number of successfull flights from our testers getting a go from them before production tests start. Production tests is testing of the kits as they go from prototyping to the actual production to see if everything went well.

All this is not to bugger the hell out of our customers but to give you something you can enjoy from the start I have to personally thank you for your patience in the process and I hope you will enjoy the final product

I hope you are kidding.
I find it unfortunate that the Compass Team Pilots and Reps have to answer over and over to ETA posts. If you read back throughout this thread there is plenty of information that supports what Myrseth is saying.

This thread is to keep Compass fans posted on the progress with the Warp 360. Not to throw out bogus timeframes that may not be attainable.

Current state: prototyping and testing. When the heli is starting to finalize you will probably get eta and movies coming your way

In the prototyping phase the team will be fairly silent, Sebastian might skip in with some news now and again better to show what to come or what might come

I'm still betting they'll go from 1.5 mm CF aileron and pitch servo mounts to something in the range of 2.0mm to 3.0 mm CF. Less flex = more precise. 1.5 will bend/twist a lot under loads with this servo arrangement.

Most dealers should have pre-orders available on their sites already, or very soon.

Personally, I'm very excited about this model as I think it can be the 'stepping stone' for newer pilots into the larger Compass models.

Can someone post some pics or drawings of the final version? Would be nice to see what changes were implemented prior to placing an order.

Is Nankin the only US dealer for Compass?
