Flipper Zero - Kickstarter RFID/RF/BLE/USB/IR

Absolutely, and more people that get their hands on it, the better; I’m sure we will see some great new functionality available when people have had some time to play

Still.
No signs, no mail, no news, no nothing. Sigh…

Psssst

No idea, it’s 4 states and about 600 miles away…
But supposedly USPS has it, so it’s not just a label that’s been created

Mine is due to arrive on the 26th of April. It is in Tennessee, so almost as far away as it can be and still be in the continental united states.

Mine is also in TN,

Makes sense sorta I guess that you would drop an entire international shipment there…

Fairly central to the country


Not that I fully trust their times at the point, but it shows the transitions in time

It happened! I finally got the email that it will be shipping soon. If anyone is wondering I was a backer, in the US, but ordered a black unit. So if anyone else is waiting on the black units it seems they are coming soooooon (as if we dont hear that enough around here :sweat_smile:)

Sigh, I think I misinterpreted “picked up” to mean they have it in their possession

I think it’s still overseas


@Eriequiet is right unfortunately. That’s how it was for mine.

The partner brings it from Hong Kong to the US, and mine sat in Hong Kong + customs for nearly 3 weeks before popping up in Chicago (never Tennessee). It apparently arrives in the closest international package center, Chicago in my case (probably same for Eriequiet in Michigan). It then took 2 more days to start making its way through the USPS system.

Hopefully y’alls won’t sit in Hong Kong for as long.

Actually that tracking means that osm have said that they have it in Smyrna TN (which may be their US base) then that it arrived at another of their facilities in IL, and then it left there and was handed off to the USPS for delivery to IN.

OSM probably only has a few locations that they hand off to USPS. I know DHL hands off for me in Kent WA.

I have also seen other couriers report their internal progress and the package goes past me up IN and either gets handed off in Portland, or goes to Seattle area, gets handed off and heads back south again.

I’m just working off of the info that Flipper provided via the Discord while I was waiting on mine. Tracking stated that it was in Tennessee, while flipper stated that the packages still had not left Hong Kong due to packaging of the pallet taking longer than expected. They had to inquire with OSM after lots of people were wondering why shipping hadn’t updated in weeks.

After all, the tracking just states picked up by shipping partner, doesn’t strictly say it was picked up in Tennessee. That just meant that OSM received the pallet in Hong Kong.

I’d imagine that the Smyrna Tennessee showed up as soon as OSM shared their manifests with USPS and paid for shipping within the US network, even though the packages weren’t in the country and might not go through customs in Tennessee.

So what you’re telling me is, a gold mine of flippers is eventually going to arrive a mere three hours from my house?
I’m not saying I’m contemplating a heist but… if any of you happen to know Don Cheadle I might be interested

All I’m hearing is, it will be easier to heist it from you after the fact

I don’t think mine actually went through TN.
I could be wrong.



I remember seeing an e-mail about they were at customs in Chicago, then it arrived a couple days later.

I ran into a real life situation where having the flipper would have been a huge advantage… But because of my hatred for having to carry all things, I didn’t have it on me. Implantable flipper? Peg leg but for RF?
