  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

VFS Inclino, Imperio, Origo News ??

That's nice to see. Just wish they were clever enough to communicate with us via mail letting us know the progress. Would save A LOT of frustration. I also hope they somehow honour the ones that have waited for a very very very very long time for these.
 
So, we gone from an actual product back to 3D renders after three years!?!? Incredible :(

Its funny how Curt throws out new shipping estimates yet again... I'll eat my hat if they actually will ship in March (if I had one).. :/
 
Well, I see the mob hasn't lynched Curt.. yet...

Interesting update, we'll see what comes of it. And those shots don't look like renders. The big question is, do they really work and can VF deliver them?
 
Shipping estimates on US subcontractors are more reliable that Asian one.
I hope that Curt will sell enough of his other product to keep his cash flow going.

Yes, these don’t look like 3D renders and the whole story looks believable.
RED also switched EPIC to US so looks like it is the reality now.
 
Well, that was an interesting turn of events.

The Impero/Inclino looks completely redesigned which explains a lot of the waiting (Why Oh Why didn't you communicate this earlier?)

Curt, i kinda liked the way the old Inclino felt in the hand and the overall curvy and smaller design but the Inclino PRO has some interesing additions. Can you post a photo from its front side too?

Also, how do you mount the receiver/motor module on the camera?
 
Based on the title of the last image there, "RECEIVER_RENDER_3.jpg", and the fact that the other images look pretty much the same (especially in terms of the connectors and highlights) I'm thinking they are all renders.

Regardless, I'm excited about this. I didn't buy in like many did, but I think having a US Product is great, more features is great, and I really like the new design.

Looking forward to hearing more, Curt. I feel like this almost deserves a new thread!
 
"We have not determined what the pricing changes are going to be as of yet.* Expect to have info on that in the next few weeks. All existing orders will be transitioned over to the new design."

Is it me or does this seem to indicate Curt is expecting to increase the price on these units? I hope he does he expect us to pay the difference after holding onto our money for the last 2.5 years.

I believed in the product from the begining and have put up with a lot of ribbing from people in my company and others in the industry who thought I should have gotten out a year and a half ago.

This news today from Curt is encouraging and I hope to have my VF FF, for the price i have already paid for it, to go with my new Epics.

Read on, Mike!

"All existing orders will be transitioned over to the new design and no additional charges will be applied."​

It sounds like you have an existing order - so you'll get the new design and "no additional charges will be applied."
 
I have a VF system and I WAITED for it. When the batteries are happy the system is happy.

I do have to say, those improvements look really great! I like the design of the new controller. I really hope this happens. Buy some more cages people!

Prost,
Rich
 
if what is shown here is delivered in the mentioned time table its final a re leaf.
I have a single motor set up , and most functions are disabled, with a slow motor.
I hope this means my set up will be replaced as well, but I have a question. I see the controller is a FIZ ready for 3 signals, I dont see a single unit. though I can see the different modules in the amp receiver.
So my question is this. Will the one set up units replaced with this controller and one receiver amp unit and one motor? In other words will the Impero replaced with a 3 signal new impero?
I would also like to see a prototype video with motor performance, e.t.c.
Thank you

Everyone gets the same controller regardless if they got a single axis or three axis. Its a pain to make the controller modular so we decided to make it a single unit with all three axis. The receiver would only be populated with one motor driver for a single axis setup.
 
Welcome back Curt.

You could ask moderator to rename your old account to this one so you will keep all your old posts and it will be easier for us to find what you posted in the past.

Just a suggestion.

I wish your business better turn in this year 2011. Hopefully end of this recession is near.

Good to know Curt.
Thanks for the free of charge receiver replacement as well.
That will keep me until I get the update. I must say that Curt replaced my Burned down receiver free of charge, even if it was my mistake burning it down.
Good to see Curt back . Hope everything works out for everyone both customers and the company.
Best
