00:00 - 00:03We've had the latest figures for Vortex SC.
00:04 - 00:05The reviews from customers are extremely positive.
00:05 - 00:07The community loves the aircraft.
00:08 - 00:12And people are recommending it everywhere.
00:12 - 00:15So overall, the launch has gone well.
00:17 - 00:19Good. ORBX should be pushing it hard then.
00:19 - 00:21Sales should pick up.
00:24 - 00:26Sexy man Dan...
00:27 - 00:28ORBX aren't really pushing it.
00:31 - 00:33They've only real done the marketing.
00:34 - 00:36There was only really a forum post and a shitty video.
00:53 - 00:58Everyone leave except whoever signed the ORBX agreement.
01:13 - 01:15A FUCKING FORUM POST!?
01:15 - 01:17WE SUBMITTED THE AIRCRAFT IN APRIL!
01:18 - 01:23WE SPENT MONTHS GOING BACK AND FORTH WITH THEM!
01:25 - 01:28Smoke! Multiplayer! Visibility!
01:29 - 01:31Every fucking time we fixed something—
01:31 - 01:34—we had to explain how the fucking aircraft worked again!
01:34 - 01:37Then finally, after months of this shit...
01:37 - 01:40THEY RELEASED IT WITHOUT FUCKING TELLING ME!
01:40 - 01:42Dan, they did put it on the ORBX website—
01:42 - 01:46IT'S MY FUCKING AIRCRAFT!
01:46 - 01:48There was also an email...
01:48 - 01:52I FOUND OUT MY OWN PRODUCT HAD LAUNCHED!
01:53 - 01:54We had launch posts to prepare!
01:56 - 01:57Videos!
01:57 - 02:00Community events!
02:00 - 02:03VORTEXKOSH!
02:04 - 02:08Instead I'm rushing around because ORBX decided—
02:08 - 02:13"Fuck it, release it now."
02:14 - 02:16And THEN I discover they've given copies away.
02:17 - 02:21To influencers I didn't even fucking choose.
02:27 - 02:29Nobody asked me.
02:30 - 02:34Nobody said "Dan, is this person suitable?"
02:34 - 02:36THEY JUST GAVE THEM MY FUCKING PRODUCT!
02:41 - 02:42And then that FlyingWithJoel weirdo gets one.
02:43 - 02:47Fantastic.
02:48 - 02:53Third-party software starts fucking with the avionics...
02:54 - 02:56The aircraft looks broken...
02:56 - 02:59And THAT'S the coverage potential customers see!
03:00 - 03:02THANK FUCK WE'RE EXCLUSIVE TO THEM!
03:04 - 03:07Don't worry Jayden. There was an Instagram story as well.
03:14 - 03:16We made a genuinely good aircraft.
03:19 - 03:23The people who bought it love it.
03:25 - 03:26The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.
03:31 - 03:33And we're sitting here wondering where the sales are.
03:40 - 03:46All because we agreed to exclusivity.
03:46 - 03:49I'm not leaving ORBX.
03:53 - 03:56But that fucking exclusivity is going.
