I did pay December 5th, but even so the dispute (super easy if a product hasn’t been shipped, which I know Jeff won’t do as he’s been sharing photos of it as we continue waiting for production to end) is a window of 180 days.

Here’s my invoice:

Correct. 180 days to open a dispute after purchase. After opening you have 20 or 30 days to solve it yourself or call in Paypal.

But like Jeff said, there is no need for a chargeback.

Probably not going to be popular but I think we should lock this thread and limit coms to those on beta chat and a pre order thread, it’s getting to noisy in here and honestly the way I see it is I took a calculated risk buying into the beta round, and I did so with money I’m not afraid to loose, just like the rest of my investments. I have no doubts though that Jeff is working hard on this and is not trying to take the money and run so y’all need to chill for a minute, if your worried about PayPal you shouldn’t be buying into a pre production run to begin with, that’s the just cost of being on the leading edge.

Some additions (also edited the above tabs)

Jeff mentioned in the telegram chat that it could handle 100A but thats probably only for the v6 + case.

I accidentally desoldered and lost (or burned) a capacitor on my Focbox while resoldering the receiver wires. Anyone know what the value for C18 is? :laughing: (My multimeter isn’t accurate enough to precisely tell)

Edit: maybe someone has a broken focbox and could desolder that component and send it to me?

I’d like to say sorry for doubting you jeff… Thought you were a spammer from the unity EOL post.

I’m new here… Guess NEO does exist.

Looking forward to buying when available
