No if you ordered through a distributor or dealer you are actually probably in a really good position... Most of them are actually going to help us handle what I am expecting to be a bit of a order taking clusterfuck on the 11th and most of the dealers and distributors will have actual inventory on the day. Just make sure you remind them ahead of time to get your camera ready if you are partaking in the upgrade madness because I'm sure they will sell out just as fast as we do.

The folks in Chicago already have a growing list of "interested" switchers...I've been bugging them daily for the past 10 days or so. HA!

So does that mean the MG is still an option up until the 11th or is that already off the table?

Off the table now since would not be processed by Oct 11.

Question. My Dragon Epic is at the HQ for the upgrade to WeaponMG a few weeks ago. But I did not get back it yet.

My account tells me, that I dont have any elibigle brain to upgrade.

What should I do, if I have Oct 11 no camera?

kind regards

Well, the new upgrades don’t exist until Oct 11. If your brain is at RED already, don’t stress, your upgrade will be done in time. If not, you will be eligible for the new paths. Either way, in this unique case, don’t stress, we will sort you.

As a raven deposit holder, this may sound dumb, but does this mean we wont order online when epic-ws go live and instead just call our rep and I can keep my february timestamp and they'll be able to take care of it?

Yes.

Jared Brent said that if we are a current raven or scarlet-w depositer that since we haven't gotten our cameras yet we'll get a speed pass but said we just talk to our rep to keep our timestamp. Just so I know what to do come oct. 11th. Do i actually place an order online or whats the process? Just don't want to get towards the end of that line. Thank you sir

Scott, it is really pretty straightforward, since you keep your timestamp, your order will be in queue before everyone who places Oct 11. So, no need to pester your rep on Oct 11 at midnight, you can take your time. Yes, to keep your timestamp, contact your rep.

Quite the opposite... Making more Dragon sensors than ever, we just cant keep up hence all this insanity. Dragons will continue to live on in Raven, Scarlet-W, and Dragon Weapons.

Super exited to find this on my front porch today! Now I just need a camera to put it on :)

How are those Dragons coming along, Jarred? Been awhile since we've seen a Scarlet-W update.


 
Brent,
Did I read correctly that anyone with a Scarlet-W deposit in could get an upgrade to Weapon Helium? Will there be an option to go from Epic Dragon to Helium or is it just to EPIC-W?

PS - love the desk - got a feeling it will get a little more... cluttered!!! ;)

Of course, EPIC DRAGON has path to both EPIC-W and WEAPON 6K DRAGON or WEAPON 8K HELIUM.

With all of the Epic-W excitement I completely forgot I'd be getting this guy in. What was your time stamp?

So... since I'm a Dec 10 @ 7:00PM PST Scarlet brain preorder, and still haven't received my camera, if I upgraded to Epic-W (If I can get the funds together) then I have a pretty good shot at getting one of them right off the bat? I'm really really considering this now. Curious to see what the drunken payment plan is since money is my biggest hangup, but If I'm actually first in line this time (not behind switchers) then it might be too good of a deal to pass up. What a glorious first-world problem to have right now. All the waiting this year may have been a blessing in disguise.

Brilliant. Thanks dude - enjoy the treats. Would have sent you a whisky but couldn't find a place to deliver it!!! You'll need it ;)
 
I have a Scarlet Dragon. Will there be an upgrade option on the 11th and, if placed early enough, might there be enough cameras to get hands on an Epic-W rather quickly?

Brent - how long will the Raven to Epic-W upgrade window be open come Oct 11th? I'm in no rush at all, just wondering will it be just one day? Or open longer? Thanks in advance mate!
