Default MotoPod still a thing?

Hey all,

I've been trying to get in touch with David Shelton about ordering a set of hardpoints for the MotoPod and haven't heard anything after a few weeks and a couple of emails. Is David still selling hardpoints for the MotoPod? Would love any information you guys have on the current status.

Thanks!

Default MotoPod

He is likely busy with certification projects with the POD. Just keep trying. I have the POD and absolutely enjoy it.

it actually looks like his website was updated recently: http://www.motorcyclepilot.com/

I've just left him a voice message, so hopefully I'll hear back soon. Thanks, all!

Default Moving to Colorado?

I believe David is moving his business (and himself) to Colorado. He was also out of the country for a while, which may explain why you couldn't reach him. Keep trying.

His website was updated today 2/22/16 and it still shows the RV-10 pod as a product. I have installed his hard point kit and am planning on the pod when the plane is finished. Dave has always been very good with questions.

The website just shows today's date ... I don't see any evidence it was updated recently. The last news (from Facebook) go back to November.
