Updates:

29 September 2026:

Welcome to Batch 7! With Batch 6 now fully booked, all new pre-orders are part of Batch 7, with production completion planned for mid-November 2026.

 

Batch 7 starts from a much stronger position than our previous batches: all CNC work for Batch 7 is already done.

 

The CNC-machined parts are the most important part of every batch, and producing them is usually what takes the longest. Having them completed before a batch even starts is quite unusual for us, and a real improvement over our previous batch productions. It is the result of an investment we made to become faster with our batches: a CNC production run much larger than Batch 6 and Batch 7, from which both batches are now being built.

 

We have also ordered a lot of the screws and other hardware ahead of time. What remains are a few components with much shorter lead times, such as the packaging foams, magic arms and tripod heads. The National Day holiday in mainland China (1-7 October) is already accounted for in this timeline, and after it there are no further public holidays in mainland China before our planned completion.

 

That is why we are confident in this timeline: there is a high chance that Batch 7 will be delivered on time.

 

The part quality issue that is currently delaying Batch 6 does not affect Batch 7.

 

Thank you for your patience!
