Hey Everyone!
This is just a quick reminder that I need your shipping information today. I will be locking down the survey later today so I can get started shipping Fiber Gliders along with the various add-ons.
If you lost the email with the link to the survey, you can go here: https://fiberglider.backerkit.com/
Also BIG thanks to all those who ordered add-ons. You guys are going to love the Carbon Fiber launchers and etc...

Last call for order updates!

Hi Everyone!
The last day to make final updates to your order is December 6th. After this date, we will lock your reward selections and charge cards for add-on item purchases, pledge upgrades, and pre-orders. You can update your shipping address up until we lock addresses for shipping.
If you haven’t answered your survey yet, if you fill out your BackerKit survey or pay for extra shipping after the December 6th order due date, we’ll still receive your information but your shipment may be delayed.
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://fiberglider.backerkit.com.
THANK YOU!
Thank you all again for being so responsive to answering our BackerKit survey—even though it may not seem like much as an individual backer, you have no idea how tremendously helpful this has been for me when trying to keep track of all of you!
Thanks everyone for your support!

Surveys Coming Tonight - Grade B Carbon Fiber
over 8 years ago
– Thu, Nov 30, 2017 at 07:46:09 PM
Hey Everyone!
I hope everyone has had a good week. I wanted to update you on two items today.
First, the Surveys:
The Backer Kit surveys are in the process of being sent. You should receive yours sometime tonight or tomorrow. Let me know if you have any questions or issues with them. It should be pretty straight forward.
Second, Carbon Fiber Production:
My first priority is to fulfill your orders with the High Quality carbon fiber parts that I promised you. That being said, the first run of carbon fiber parts has resulted in more than a few flaws in the finish. These flaws are minor cosmetic flaws but the quality is still not what I promised to send to you guys. We have changed suppliers and will have the new wings, fuselages, and tails soon. However, it will be close. I am still hopeful that I will be able to have your orders to you before Christmas.
The flaws in the Grade B - Fiber Gliders are small flaws in the finish. They are still fully functional. That's why I am making them available to you at a reduced price. They would be good to practice putting them together, playing with them with kids, etc...
Let me know if you have any questions.
Best Regards,
Tray S.

Again thanks for your support. We couldn't do this without you.

Hey Everyone!
Its been a crazy couple of weeks. I wanted to take some time and update everyone on our production. As of last Friday we are 70% there, and on track to start shipping early December. The brass ballasts, stands, and acrylic rubber band launchers are done and ready to go. We are currently having the carbon fiber plate made custom for the Fiber Glider so we can have the same finish on both sides. Once we have the carbon fiber plate done we will start cutting planes out.
Here are some pictures of our packing box and a few of the completed ballasts.
I'm heading down to check on the carbon fiber production tomorrow. I hope to send you pictures before Thanksgiving.
Best,
Tray S.
