Yes but still no UK competition and delivery for my SuperX was an eye watering £23. I was hoping to work with a reseller who had good sales throughput and the potential to be palmed off with old stock, as I was, would not be an issue.
Xaircraft.co.uk lists the 650 pro as new lower price for 2014 but has just upped the price by about 10% to £750 from £680. I recently bought a SuperX from them that was old stock V1 not V2 and previously opened. Anthony at Xaircraft Australia kindly sent me the V2 IO. I'm reluctant to by...

This isn't going to help us.
I never fly over people and don't know anyone that would.
www.gogohobbies.com are pretty good and not far from my lad in Coquitlam and it'd be great if they started to supply Xaircraft kit in Canada. I'm with you on the on-line sales only but here in the UK we have lots of RC stores and I like to visit in person to pick up expensive kit. That way you...
Hi fellers, yeah I've done without a riser too. My DJI Naza GPS's are on risers and I thought it would be better to put the XA GPS puck higher and away from other electronics but I too have discovered it works without lifting up.
I do like this SuperX though, I really want to see XA do well...
No, unfortunately not. One can only speculate as to why no-one got back to me. Anthony at Xaircraft Australia, who I might add is seriously helpful, said that they didn't have a reseller in Canada but that there were a few companies in the US who could supply into Canada. To be honest, I...
Ah, sorry rwilabee, I cited XaircraftAmerica's comment that the pole is included thinking they were speaking for SuperX, the product. On reflection, Drew was putting distance between his company and other Xaircraft resellers in the US. We need more competition here in the UK. Everyone needs a...
The sole UK distributor is on holiday from 20th March to 12th April so I am unable to obtain a comment. What I was doing is gathering accurate information about what should have been included in the SuperX box so that I could accurately take that up with the distributor.
It may be that the...
It states on XaircraftAmerica's site:-
"XAircraft SuperX is a new generation of multicopter flight control system. You can download the 1.9 SuperX Manual - English Here. All SuperX sold include the GPS riser pole unlike our competition!"
I received my SuperX without the pole and there seems...
I will be in Vancouver in very early May and am toying with either taking a 650 Pro w/SuperX from here in the UK or better still, is there a supplier in the Vancouver area that I could buy from whilst there? I asked Xaircraft America whether or not they shipped to Canada but no reply so can...
The version 2 as I understand it refers to the IO (Bec)and the only difference between V1 and V2 is SBUS.. IO V1 didn't support SBUS but V2 does whilst the actual FC itself remains the same. But I think you're right Chris, your FC is faulty.
Don't give up on Xaircraft though, hitherto I was...

Bloody hell Pangloss, I bet you wished you'd not opened your mouth ha ha.
I enjoyed your piece though and found it interesting whether it be pilot error or not, who cares, you shared it in good faith. But how boring it must be to live ones' life always within the envelope.
