Lepton Pinons are coming!!!

[Learn to Fly]

Note I was talking about my 3rd shipment of pinions. The first shipemt should be here today or tomorrow and will begin ship to everyone with orders today or tomorrow.

[GGoodrum]

I'm happy to keep my order in, thank you.

What is the smallest size you can do and still have it have a 5mm bore? I'm looking to try some 6s and 8s setups, but that will require pinions in the 12-15T range. Is this possible?

Did they arrive? :glasses2:

Jeff

[AdrianM]

None today

The manufacturer said he sent them 5-7 day delivery. Tomorrow is day 7.

[Blik]

That is good news because then they have to be here any day now. Remember the glass is half full not half empty.

Cheers

Yep, I don't mind the wait :mrgreen: Still waiting on my A30-10XL from Blik which he sent a while ago also. I'll probably get both of them around the same time

[AdrianM]

I appreciate you patience. I will not pre-sell stuff again. In the future if you see Pinions available on my site I will have them ready to ship immediatly.

I have a 2nd shipment of pinions(mostly Lepton) in route now

That's a good decision. As you can see, Murphy's law is never far away. I'm sure you will find a way to indemnify those that paid early if waiting continues. Any coupon for the next order or something like that. Sounds logical to me. But i'm not mad at you for the moment, no misunderstanding. Just impatient :mrgreen:

Im impatient too, never mad. :glasses2:

I think we all should be grateful Adrian is supplying us with these rare pinions. It just snowed another foot here and is -20C right now so I am very patient.

Cheers

I have between +6 to +10 degrees here (Here is Paris. This temps at this time of the year are creazy...) so i'm very impatient.

That's Celsius, right?

Here in Virginia, our highs have been below 40 F the past couple of weeks. Yes, that's nothing compared to places like western New York (88 inches of snow and counting) or Minnesota (below zero for a long time), but it's definitely cold enough here to cramp my flying style big time.

Cabin Fever is bad.

[Learn to Fly]

Weird is NY only a few hours away and we have gotton NO snow all year...I hate winter here and when the wife is done with school, we are movin south!! Its been mild all winter here in CT. and I flew today, indoors and out. :glasses2: I try to get at least one or two flights a day, cold or not.

I very appreciative.But hurry up!! :wink:

Kid mode on:
Are we there yet?
Kid mode of.
Still no sign of this *¤#&@% pinions?

Nicolas

[AdrianM]

Not today. I am more anxious than any of you. Even I am waiting on a 13T 600 pinion so I can try my new Neu 1910/1Y.

[rotodingo]

Since you planed to to let us order and pay before you had the pinions in your hands, i don't understand you didn't used a shipping method alowing you to have online tracking. Pinions are very small parts so the package is probaly not so big. My opinion is you didn't secured enough this operation. It will probably ends OK but imagine it's not the case?! You was supposed to receive them at the begining of the week... I hope god likes flying his Lepton too so he will not autorized fate to to make us wait too long for this pinions

rotodingo: I am waiting in line just like you, but did you not know before you bought the pinions that he did not physicaly have them? Because he was pretty clear when he opend the web site that the pinions had not been reveived. My point is "buyer beware"

[Learn to Fly]

I thought they were available, after his post saying they were available. No worries...but COME ON!!! Are we there yet?!?! :motz Would have been nice on a day like today...ahh 30 degrees!!! :glasses2:

Yes i knew they was on the way but not arrived. I was in the idea they was shipped via UPS or EMS or something giving him a very reliable shipping delays and tracking. Looks like a cheap shipping method was used. My opinion: it's not the good option when you make customers paid first... Of course, if it works, nobody will know but look at the situation right now. It's not a murder, not even a big amount of money but i'm not what you can call "happy". I'm more dispointed. That's all. I don't want a refund, i want the pinions i ordered and paid. Sounds logical to me... I'm not denying that it's a good thing that somebody finaly proposed pinions for the Lepton.
