Meet the Flipper Zero Blog! Starting now, it will be the main place where we speak, ranging from important updates and learning videos to some geekish production insights from our developers.
Don’t forget to subscribe, and yeah, we even have RSS.
Kickstarter’s updates section is too inconvenient for that, so don’t be surprised that most of the further updates won’t appear on Kickstarter. The crowdfunding campaign has ended, but Flipper’s story is just starting, so we needed a new way to keep you updated on Flipper Zero and our further products
Latest Sample Review. Manufacturing and Shipping Plan
We’ll be honest: we won’t be able to ship Flippers to all backers in February. The devices will be produced gradually, starting with a very small batches and gradually increasing in volume to reduce the risk of having any defects. We really want to make a cool product that is perfect in every aspect from mechanics to electronics. Any mistake in a large batch will be fatal and it will be impossible to withdraw.
Asked in the discord, at this stage can read HF UIDs, no HF writes tested. Current LF antenna isn’t working with implants but design still isn’t final.
Flipper Zero backers should be getting their order confirmation emails from Backerkit right about now. You can add additional breakout boards and a special ФЛИППЕР silicone case as a surcharge to the price you already payed for during the campaign. Taxes (120$!, at least in my country) and shipping will be added aswell, even if you opt out for any extras. I kind of wished they announced these insane tax rates sooner, because if they pull through with these charges soon it will definetly cut into my implant installation budget I saved up.
I chose the black one (obviously), but I was a bit sad that there were only two different colours… from all the early artwork, I kinda expected a bit more (like the transparent one), and I would love to have one in dark purple with neon green buttons or such
But yeah, that’s definitely first world problem stuff… glad they get this thing done, no matter what colour it finally has^^
I also backed this. In therms of addons i added all i could since i plan on doing some extension boards for it. To the lf hf antenna: circuitboard is less then optimal but it can work. The range is just not that good. In theory you should be able to replace the antennas with a custom one but you would need to match it again for it to work properly. We should wait at least a few more months though for updates on lf and hf
