Haha! ¡°Do your job¡±. It¡¯s not like you would put them there for the fun of it¡
Good luck!

Hi Derek
That is not very likely I'm afraid... I'm worried there may not even be enough to fulfil the first batch of orders. I placed stock in the shop but the kit took 24 orders MORE than it should have done, because it was so overloaded that it let itself continue placing orders even when the stock had gone to zero. The shop was so busy basically, it took some time to realize that the stock had run out!
Anyway we shall see how it goes... and 375 more are in the factory.?
Though the first thing I saw this morning when I fell out of bed, was a WeChat message from the PCB factory complaining about the number of "holes" in the board and could I optimize it to have less holes! Holes. HOLES! Holes? Those are not just holes, they are VIAs, man, and they are crucial?to our groundplane stitching! I told them to stop whining and fire up their machines and let the drilling begin.?

Hello Hans,
Glad you¡¯ve managed to source some more!
I never got round to asking on here but I was 30mins late for the first batch before it ran out (despite setting alarms ?) ?- if there are any left over after you have supplied others whom asked here, I would greatly appreciate it if you could keep one for me please :).

Hi all
I have managed to obtain sufficient parts to manufacture 375 more QDX kits which is less than I would like, but it is something to quench?the thirst of the masses... at least for a little while to let me search for more components.?
It might take about 5-6 weeks to prepare these kits. I will update you when I have more news about the estimated availability?date.?
I am not going to take pre-orders except for a few special cases and requests related to the first batch, who I will communicate directly with.?
