Just saw this on a distributors site.
Due to a Shortage of components at the factories, the Xeniths ESC wonāt be back in stock until 2022
i wonder if thatās just for the distributor but BKB will still get their own stock?

I guess that helps my Focbox Unity sale ā¦ lol!
i donāt think it does in any way.
Selling older blood hardware (+ itās from mboards) with several issues for more than it cost before the price of the blood unity got inflated to promote the new cheaper tenka.

Makes sense. Thanks for explaining.
I have a broken Xenith so if anyone has a repairable unit I would like to try messing with it.
Maybe send it to @JohnnyMeduse for repairr. Also, I have a focbox unity for sale. Just an FYI.

Afraid not, they wonāt be sold to individuals until next year. Sad face. Iād expect the same thing is going to happen to most other ESCās
what do we think about the tenka?
is that a serious question?
assuming its fucked cause its impossible to get at the components
Go check the Stormcore page.
Buckle up kids, next 6-12 months are going to get rough.

Xenith V2.1 is up for sale, Halloween Edition, the ad says.
21 left in stock, I bought 2. Iām a BIG sucker for Halloween. Massive holiday for me.
Anyway, promo code for $40 off. Makes the Xenith not only cool, but cheaper.

What the promo code?
HALLOWEEN
It should just pop up on the screen, and you should be able to click apply. It comes to a total of $268 and change out the door. If the switch improvements thing is all above board, this is a great price for a dual these days.
No canbus or imu, but thats no big deal imo. The color schemes waaaay better.
That confused meā¦ The Xenith/Unity never had an IMUā¦and the Xenith still has a label for the CAN port.
Whatās all that about?
