I think they get the cases moulded out-of-house by a moulding company, so once the mould's been adjusted, hopefully it won't take long to get the new cases in.

We have made some excellent progress. The case retool started a few weeks ago.

We have identified and fixed several minor issues on the Monster, and will be releasing a new hardware rev, and a new software rev in the next week or so.

The hardware and case upgrade will be free to owners of V1 and V2 Monsters. (The new cases look like about 2-3 weeks more before they are available...)

I believe they will be updated with new hardware. I don't know if we are going to wait on the new case (some people have been waiting a while now) or not -- that decision hasn't been made yet....

Awesome news. My version 1 is still running fine but I would like the external plugs so I will eventually (probably when we start getting snow and I am done with outdoors for the winter) send mine in.

Once again great service.

Its probably your unit that you sent in repaired. I know they are looking at all of the V2s and repairing the ones that are possible. I dont think they have any "replacement" units in stock any more, and probably wont untill the next run which will be ???.

Fantastic! That's great news Patrick, and thanks for posting about it. If you don't mind my asking, what exactly are the problems?

My sentiments exactly. Thank you Patrick, I can't wait to try the V3. I have a working V2 using an external bec with the escs red wire disconnected so I'm in no hurry and would prefer to get a V3 with the updated case.
