  Sounds great! But WHEN will the v4.0 and the Bug be available???
  
  I still have a new Spider v2.1 and I plan to get some v4.0 and a Bug. Can you help me with which cars they are best suited. Looking to upgrade an XMODS Evo, Mini-Z MR-02 and an AWD.
  
  Hate I missed the 3.0 reign.
  
  Thanks!

  Hi All,
  So far we’ve had some problems with the manufacture of the v4.0 boards. Our fabricators have had problems accurately spliting the boards once made due to their size – most people don’t make boards this small. I’ve made a few changes to the design and we’re waiting for another test run..

  Turbos will be in the FETs and Turbos section once we have the teething problems sorted.
  
  I’ve been told to expect the boards in 7-14 days now, so here’s hoping it’s a good production run for the fabricators with no more failures.

  Jimmy, you’re best just waiting and ordering it when you can complete the transaction in one go. These will be in-stock (or at worst a week delay if we’re waiting for bits) right through until they get updated (probably 6 months away).

  I was proud to be the first in North America to buy the v4.0 Spider. Ordered 3 and they arrived on Monday. Got the first one installed today in a Gen1 XMODS and it is sweet! Haven’t had a chance to “really” test it yet, but the size is incredible. Here is a pic. Can you spot the spider?
  
  Once I clean up the install and shorten some of the wires, I will put it through the paces. So far, with only a Speedy 07BB and a few minutes on my track, I’ve lost tires 3 times. Guess I’d better glue them on before I pop an UberDash in.
  
  Nice job shrinking them Aaron. Enjoy!

  For a micro-t, does the Spider v4 install the same as the version 3?
