Hey Powerup Pilots,
As the holiday festivities are nearing us and the winter is closing in on us, we have one piece of good news to share with you all…
As of November 14, 2019, over 12,000 Powerup Pilots have backed the Powerup 4.0 project to life! We have managed to raise $1,121,180 for the campaign. Our initial goal was to reach $40,000, but the love and support you have shown our idea over the years has shocked us (in an awesome way!) and proven once again that the Powerup Pilot community is one to reach for skies.
So what’s next for us now, you maybe wondering?
From now on until April, 2020, we will be kept busy as we start working on creating and building enough Powerup 4.0s to offer to all of you who had pledged. The kits will be made available to and shipped to all backers by late April. Since you’ve already done everything you can to get your favourite toy of the year, all you can do now is sit back and wait for the magic to arrive in your mail by early next year.
Once again, we want to thank you for all the support you have shown the Powerup team over the years. This is going to be our best one yet!
Hey Powerup Pilots,
The beginning of the year has so far exceeded our expectations, and every day coming up to April is a day of excitement here at the Powerup offices as we get ready for the latest launch in our series of smart-phone controlled paper airplanes.
We know you’ve been waiting eagerly for your very own kit to arrive in the mail. In the meantime, let’s recap on the five most frequently asked questions the Powerup Pilots seem to have on their mind:
-
How easy is it to fly Powerup 4.0?
Super easy! POWERUP 4.0 sensor driven technology makes flying a breeze even for beginner pilots. The onboard flight control software in combination with the intuitive app user interface, removes the risk of nose dives and stalls even if you did not trim your airplane properly or if your folds are not symmetrical.
2. How durable is the Powerup 4.0?
The POWERUP 4.0 is made of durable material: Carbon fibre rods, Nylon reinforced with glass fibre and Polypropylene plastics and a rubber bumper. It can withstand some impressive crashes. Having said that, no flying machine is unbreakable. Flying on a soft surface will prolong the POWERUP DART life. Spare parts for repair and maintenance are will be available on Backerkit ad-ons and on our website. Paper wing damaged? Just fold a new one!
3. When will the rewards arrive? Can I get it before Christmas?
All rewards are trackable and scheduled for delivery April 2020 world-wide. Shipping time in the USA is 3-8 day delivery. Shipping time for International orders is 7-21 days.
4. What if I don’t like it? Can I return it back?
Unfortunately we do not accept returns from Kickstarter projects. We will however repair or replace a defective unit as part of our warranty policy. We provide a full 1 year warranty on all parts aside the propellers and battery. Battery warranty - 6 months from order.
5. I have another great question to ask! How can I contact you?
The Kickstarter Comment section makes it tough to address everyone individually. To get in touch directly with us:
- Send us a direct message via the Kickstarter POWERUP 4.0 page.
