AttoPilot XYZ Horizon Sensors Available!

Posted by Jordi Muñoz on September 18, 2009 at 12:00pm
Hello, for those waiting for the XYZ now is the time! I stock some units yesterday and they are almost sold out but i will add more this weekend.Sorry i had to increase the price, the stock market for those IR sensor is low and i was unable to get them with the same price as before, actually the price increase of each sensor was just like 2.10 dlls, but that's enough to increase price up to 13 bucks per unit! DAMN! Otherwise everybody will have to wait undefined time.http://store.diydrones.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=SE-0002-01

    FMA is watching this space closely. If RangeVideo isn't paying the royalty, they will definitely be sued. That will bring their price up!

    Also i don't know if range video is paying the patent. I guess they are making a huge amount of them... In some point i will have to stop selling this sensors. The real price i suppose to sell them in order to generate enough earnings and also have a nice re-seller price is about $132.6...

    5 dlls if we buy more than 1k, but we don't have founds, also you must add the TAX..

    If anyone knows where we can get the thermopiles more cheaply, please tell us so we can pass the savings on to everyone.
