First batch of kits have shipped.  Depending on when you did your pre-order your kit may be in route already :) Check with the store you ordered from. I know the first batch sold quickly!

As for tail boom, we don't have an ETA.  It's still in prototyping. It is coming though :) As soon as we have a time frame, I am sure Matt will let you know!

I didn't think I'd like the boom wrap until I saw Matt's in person. Looks really nice. I hate to add to crash costs, but I think it'll help with presence in the sky on top of looking super cool.

The wrap will come ready to fit an 806. Shorter configurations will have to trim the boom a bit. A copping saw or any fine tooth saw will make quick worn of it.

+1 for Chris, also in addition a dermel with the little cutting blade works great, and since its carbon once you size and cut the boom to your desired length, take a little CA and seal the end of the boom where the cut was made. Not to much but just enough to keep it sealed and finished looking. Won't be long till they are here.

Also, instead of trying to mark it with a sharpie you can wrap blue painters tape around the boom wrap and use the edge of the tape as a cutting guide.
