No worries Jamie,

That site that says I can get a discount for bulk orders reckon it would take 1-3 weeks to arrive, so I would need to place the order sometime this week, just to be safe. I'll give you a shout when/if i'm ordering and if you're wanting one you can just pay me when you get paid, no problem about that. It will possibly be near the end of the month anyway by the time they arrive.

Alex, I don't have his email, do you have it?

If you don't mind doing that Tony, then that'd be great thanks. Might as well take advantage of the bulk price discounts.

Re: Scorpion XL or XXL

No worries Jamie, i'll add one on to the order for you then. Even if its just 2 we order we get the better price and hopefully not hit with tax. I'll do it say, late tomorrow evening to give 1 more full day for people to give me a shout but also just in time to meet their wednesday morning postage date. Does that give you enough time to decide Alex?

Hi All,

Wanted to let you know that the new Scorpion XXL is finished and entering production as soon as we can get the production PCBs in house.

This unit is larger than the Scorpion XL at 2.25 x 3.25 x .4 Will post pictures on Monday or so.

Power is increased over the old XXL and only a single layer of chips with heatsinks is used for increased reliability. The new unit does 20A continuous with no fan. 25A for 2 min. with no fan. 31A+ continuous with fan (tested for >15 min) at 100% PWM. Need to get larger battery to test peak current with fan. Probably >40A for short peaks. These figures are all for each motor channel.

Some new features:

- Switching power supply so no HV jumper or worries about voltage. More efficient and more current for 2.4G receivers
- Remote on-off switch connections
- Dip switch for options - no jumpers
- Button to enter cal mode
- Available plastic enclosure
- Victor/Simple-H style screw terminals for power connections using fork style crimp on terminals.
- Crystal on CPU chip for temp. stability
- Fan connections on PCB
- Lipo cutoff mode
- New Coast mode along with the normal Brake mode at zero speed
- Serial and RC software standard

Price will be similar to the old XXL. Not set quite yet.

Cheers Tony. Amazing how my parts-recycling philosophy goes straight out the window waaaaay before I even get paid!
