They are definitely worth the wait!
If you haven't received a packing notice this time around, more components are on the way.
I sincerely apologize for the lengthy wait. Believe me, this is not a position I'm happy being in.
Everyone who has an order in at this time can expect a kit within the next few weeks, then we'll have them in stock for immediate shipping.
Thank you.

We're currently shipping up to order # 795.
Next week, we'll be receiving more components and assembling more kits. You are certainly in that group.
Please be patient. You will definitely love the new kit!

Got mine and thought I'd share a few things for anyone using a custom plunger.
Mine is using an old stock 70's bally plunger mount with a newer custom rod. Unfortunately unless you have a modern plunger mount it will not fit snugly so some rigging will have to be done to keep it from moving around and screws up the calibration after a few pulls. I'm still working out this issue. I do not have room to mount the included plunger mount, but it does work perfect with the stock mount.
Also, these things do not like black plunger rubber tips. You will need to switch to the white one provided or it won't work at all.
Is there a way to adjust the nudging power? No matter how hard I do it, I don't really notice any movement and don't tilt anything. I see in the settings that it is indeed moving.

Check if the table is able to nudge analog. Some of even just redone tables doesnt, so no movement ...

Cool, just received my plunger.
The install instruction recommend to install the electronics box upsidedown. Thats a bit dificult in my cab. Does it work the other way round too?
Which side of the electronics box should point to the back of the cab?

You can mount it any way that best suits your cab. I mount them on the bottom of VirtuaPins without any issue.
With the new case design, the USB should be pointing toward the back.
I'll be updating the guide as soon as I can get to it.

Finally mounted new plunger/nudging kit and seems to work fine. Thanks Noah. Any idea how long for another one as I'm starting a new build and I think I want the same plunger in that one. Love the blue handle. Never knew the Nano-tech kit was removable from plunger like this one. I didn't even need to change the plunger mount at all, just unplug the plunger overlay tube and switch with the new one.

order received
In two word : GOOD JOB
I've build mine with plunger support but needing calibration with my own code in 18f2550 , with your it's quite simple
if you want a simple solution go for it
Thank you! Glad you're enjoying it!
i guess virtualpin will get a couple decent order from me in the near future plan on building a cabinet will get all my part there including the plunger kit
I'll be happy to handle it personally.
If anyone can do a quick video on the product and show the nudge features in action I will love you long time!
Check the first post of this topic ... http://www.vpforums....=24401&p=224792
Any word on the next shipment?
We're assembling and testing at this very moment. More will go out this week, and more next week. We should be entirely caught up at that point with orders > 3 weeks.

After next week's shipments, I anticipate we'll not have any orders taking longer than the 2-3 weeks for a period of two weeks, then we'll have surplus to ship next day.

I think i'll add my 2 cents on the plunger kit.
First thing i noticed is how well it's built! I don't use the keyboard encoder part so cannot comment on that(use ipac).
The plunger just WORKS on a lot tables that include the script, which is PERFECT!
Some tables you just need to check enable mechanical plunger and then they work(maybe not the plunger graphic on some tables)
SURPRISED at how many tables don't work and would need more modding than i am willing to currently do so for now will just use launch button.
The nudging is great but my shaker motor cause an instant tilt! So had to turn tilt sensitivity way down and increase dead zone to find the best setting.
That being said i would say to anyone thinking of getting one to get one! If anyone mods a table to fix plunger(like addams and others) send it to me!!!! ![]()
Paul seems like a decent guy to me, no matter what everybody else says!
