SAB Goblin Kraken
UPDATED: Two weeks to go
Only one week was left, but SAB Heli Division has changed the original delivery date from 2nd of May to 9th of May. That day SAB Heli Division begins to dispatch the first batch of SAB Goblin Kraken helicopters. 9th of May is the day, when the helicopter is out. Demand is high but still not too late to order your one.
Most of the SAB pilots - if not all - have got their own Goblin Kraken helicopters and they are flying them now, however they are not the same kits as the production ones. No, not the helicopter is different, but the packages they have got don't contain everything, like the final manual as few accessories are still in production.
Most active promoters
Kevin St-Cyr
Kevin has uploaded a huge amount of pictures in action about this great machine. And all pictures show that. he enjoys the new flagship of SAB. Kevin contributed in an article with his first impressions and opinions on Scorpion blog as well. As he expressed:
Bert Kammerer and Kyle Stacy
The guys at BK Hobbies are also pretty active in Kraken promotion - and as SAB dealers they work very well, much better than any other dealers. This is, why BK Hobbies is so unique. Also really nice from them, they are working for other shops instead of them, making a real #KeepRCHelicAlive movement.
The last few BKPodcasts were about Kraken more or less. Bert and Kyle are talking about Kraken in BKPodscast #35, #36, #37, #38, and the information given by them is useful, interesting and also funny sometimes. Off topic, but if you want to understand the beginning of BKPodcast #38 - where the main title is slightly different - you must listen the episode 37.
Bert and Kyle have created few nice videos about Goblin Kraken. No, no build video yet - and it will not be any for a while at least because of many reasons, Bert explain them in the most recent BKPodcast episodes.

Ordering, delivery and further batches
The stock is running out everywhere, but there are still available helicopters to pre-order. When the stock is gone, the second batch will be produced much later, it is possible, people missing it now, have to wait even months.
There's no discount on these kits, as the demand is much higher than the number of helicopters. Sale is also not expected too soon, as SAB doesn't allow the dealers to make any sales on new products, so if these are the reasons of your waiting, then change your mind.
SAB Heli Division is starting to deliver the kits to dealers on 9th of May, after the date your helicopter can be expected within days - if you ordered your one.
Update reason
SAB has had to postpone the date due to some unforeseen logistic issues, but don't worry, nothing serious happened.
