"The 9700 development project continued to evolve at every turn. Progress accelerated in 2008 when we were joined by our newest designer, Cliff Schecht. Over the next year, Cliff took the existing design sketches and concepts and developed most of the new crop of modules with significant consultation from Geoff Schecht and feedback from the rest of us. When David Arms joined Chuck McLeavy's production team in 2009, these modules began to make the final huge leap from prototype to production.
Benefits from employing this new method of kit design have surpassed our expectations. The new crop of 9700 modules is utterly true to the original design goal: basic modules at an extremely affordable price that are, by far, the easiest-to-build kits we have ever produced. Even sweeter is that their performance rivals modules available from any manufacturer at any price."
Great to see PAIA back at it, this is where I started and I wish them well, still got my Gnome!
