All of the orders I have received have been shipped. You should have received a tracking number to the e-mail used at checkout.

Hmm. Odd. I followed the address that was given on the order form. Nothing has come back to me yet, so hopefully you'll have some luck at the post office. If not send me a PM and I'll see if I can get any information from my end.

Hi tom, would it be possible to order an astro-eq without the ic`s?. I have made an error assembling mine and the damage is irreversible. I already have the ic`s so only need an assembled PCB if possible. if you could do that could you give me a price please? thanks, Jamie.
:EDIT forget that, i have just ordered a complete unit with rj11 cables from you.
thanks again!

Hi All,

I currently no longer have any AstroEQ's available.

Due to the fact that I'm currently working a full time job as well as studying for a PhD, I have little spare time so I am not planning to make another batch of AstroEQ's in the near future.

I will continue be continuing to sell the pre-programmed MCUs and the PCBs to allow for people to build there own controllers.


It's possible that there may be one or two available depending on whether the couple of people who have already e-mailed choose to buy a controller. I'll post an update if that is the case. For now, please assume there are no more in stock.

Kind Regards,
Tom.

Hey Tom,

I wish you the very best for your studies!
You just gave me the reason to solder the board my myself ;-)

I have one question though: you have a very "stylish" housing for the controller. Is it 3D-printed? If yes, would you release the files?

Hi Axel,

The housing isn't 3D printed, it's an off-the-shelf enclosure. The part number is in the BOM for the board.

The only bit that is customised is the end panels. The enclosure is made out of ABS, so quite soft, and with some care it is possible to cut out the required holes in the blank end panels that come with the enclosure. I've been laser cutting clear acrylic end panels for the pre-assembled controllers, but I don't have any left.

Kind Regards,
Tom.

Thanks Tom,

I just ordered a 3D printer from gearbest. There will be a lot of thingies to be printed cause we will do a lot of parts for ATM. When I finished the design for the housing I will publish it on thingyverse and post it here. But this all will take a few months. I just merely can spare the time soldering the AEQ board yet ;-)

Cheers

Hello Tom. I was curious if you have a guess time frame when you might produce more AstroEQs.   I was going to order one and saw your comment regarding not in the near future.  Depending on how long that might be whether 2-3 months or longer will determine if I wait or build my own. 

Thanks
Jack

Any idea when this will be available again.
I have a new very large mount I need to convert to stepper motor drives.
Thanks

Hi there.
Do you have any complete units for sale.
Mine has just met an unfortunate end RIP.
Don't really want to go through building another one.
Thanks Graham

None at the moment I'm afraid.
I don't have any plans to make more at the moment - too busy with studies + work.
