My production crew has been busy finishing up the last orders that I accepted in September. Meanwhile my engineer Arthur and I are finishing the design changes needed for effective higher volume production. The automated test equipment that Arthur built will support volume production and has already increased the quality of Zillas going out the door. The improved Hairball code I've been working on ran today for the first time in my 914 and promises to increase reliability as well as make diagnostics easier.
I am in talks with a very qualified licensee, and although we have not signed any formal agreements yet, we seem to be finding common purpose and I expect things to be well established soon.
I apologize for the delay. My less than ideal health and my possibly unreasonable requirement for quality has not been conducive to moving faster on this path, but it is encouraging to see the transition coming to fruition.
The waiting list on our website continues to grow and I hope the new manufacturer will be contacting those of you on it soon.
WOO WOO~!
That would be of great benefit to all! If I ever need a back-up or fry the Curtis1231C I would at least know A BETTER controller is available... I mean after all, Zilla come HIGHLY RATED by almost all who have experienced them! GO OTMAR!!!
This situation has been like this for over a year. Not promising and having all those waiting lists and the product at this high prize.
Im looking at Kelly atm, resonable prize. Keep it up Zilla and you will loose the market. I hope you turn this around though.
I don't think there is any real comparison between Zilla and Kelly. There is a reason Zilla's cost so much and people still want them. It sounds as if Otmar has finally found a serious buyer for the company.
