Hello
I received a final settlement, in which the cost of shipping is $202.
In the original calculation of the cost of shipping was $70.

I do not think that $202 for the delivery of 5 kilograms is the normal price.
Please check my order #1832.

We have no account with EMS and we have no discount.

The only company that delivers to Russian Federation is the Post Office. We quoted EMS service but can check the AirMail which should be cheaper but will take longer to deliver.

If you want us to deliver in any other country (except ex. Russian Federation) we can use DHL and we have considerable discounts with them therefore we can give you better shipping price. Maybe you have a friend somewhere in Europe that can receive these for you.

As promised the date of shipping was confirmed, good job Black Arrow.

Hope to make new deals when you start with asic hardware....

Is it correct that the shipping costs has been reduced/corrected? The website mentions €25.38 for my order now instead of €53.85 before.

Yes.

We'll also start refunding everybody who overpaid for shipping shortly.

We have the Spartan 6 FPGAs in hand and we're able to fulfill all orders. Everybody who has placed order in group manufacture, please pay now.

We plan to manufacture exactly the number of orders.

If anybody wants Lancelots delivered next week, please place your order now.

We can offer $275/pcs for 100 pcs.

I tryed to run cgminer and got this message:

How can I fix it?

From FPGA-README:

Quote

This README contains extended details about FPGA mining with cgminer

For ModMinerQuad (MMQ) BitForce (BFL) and Icarus (ICA, BLT, LLT, AMU, CMR)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

When mining on windows, the driver being used will determine if mining will work.

If the driver doesn't allow mining, you will get a "USB init," error message
i.e. one of:
open device failed, err %d, you need to install a Windows USB driver for the device
or
claim interface %d failed, err %d

The best solution for this is to use a tool called Zadig to set the driver:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libwdi/files/zadig/

This allows you set the driver for the device to be WinUSB which is usually
required to make it work if you're having problems

With Zadig, you may need to run it as administrator and if your device is
plugged in but you cannot see it, use the Menu: Options -> List All Devices

You must also make sure you are using the latest libusb-1.0.dll supplied
with cgminer (not the libusbx version)

When you first switch a device over to WinUSB with Zadig and it shows that
correctly on the left of the Zadig window, but it still gives permission
errors, you may need to unplug the USB miner and then plug it back in

Have the emails to finalise payment for the Group Buy gone out yet? Just want to make sure they didn't get caught by the spam filter.

No, not yet. We expect to receive the FPGAs on Monday and will send the payment requests as soon as we have them in hand.

Hello, I am new to the forum so forgive me if this is a dumb question. What is the attraction of these boards? Curiosity item, novelty ? If you wanted to do bitcoin mining and at least break even you would not be able too at $350+ for 400 Mh/s. So what is the attraction?

EDIT: Oh! I see batch #6 cancelled due to lack of interest in the OP. Didn't see that at first. Never Mind....
Cheers!

My personal attraction is :

that asic hardware is hard to find, i have a bfl order but probably i will see them for the end of the year, GPU mining is no more profittable due to the last crazy increase in difficulty in the last two months (if you pay electricity bill, and in Italy we have a high cost), this board is not a profittable deal in the short time (i'm mining with one board by one month with BtcGuild and i make 0.011 - 0.012 a day 5.4 work unit a minute), so at the actual exchange rate the roi is near at one year, but i'm using this small earn to invest in AsicMiner quotes, to expand a little the earnings (dividends), hoping that blackarrow too will arrive as soon as they can in asic hardware, and then do the trade-in for the new boards.

This is my personal opinion... Cheers!

I hope there are new batches. I am in the 5th batch, and expect to order more boards.

Good job Black Arrow.

So, with this, I only mine coins that use algo sha256 ?

Exactly. No scrypt-mining with Lancelots.

will you make a trade-in for the lancelots or sell them cheaper to all lancelot purchasers?

We'll do a trade-in.
