Repairs and moving
Most of the Pioupious are now repaired.
When we brought the boxes to the carrier, they made a funny face 🙂
Some Pioupious leaving |
The only Pioupious who are not yet finished are:
– Either Pioupious whose repair is a little more complicated than the others. In this case, I cannot subcontract, it is I who must do the intervention.
– Either Pioupious that we have received in the last 2 weeks.
Being in Liège this week, I won't be able to finish them until I return next week. It will go quickly because the list of urgent work to be done has been considerably shortened.
Attention ! Pioupiou moves to Belgium
If you have not yet sent your Pioupiou for repair, try to do so as soon as possible. And above all, before March 31st.
The address in Grenoble is valid until March 31, deadline :
The Wind Company
36 rue Parmentier
38000 Grenoble, FRANCE
After March 31, parcels sent to Grenoble are very likely to get lost.
After March 31, the Pioupiou will have to be sent to the new address in Belgium
With the move, we will not be operational immediately. It will take a little time. It is therefore better to send your Pioupiou now as long as we are settled in France.

otherwise I know lots of great bars in Liège 😛
If you want me to show you the paragliding sites in the region because you're blocked on weekends let me know.
Thank you for this information / good news
You talk about "Pioupious whose repair is a little more complicated than the others". Is it possible to know the list of Pioupious concerned?
Thank you in advance,
Mickaël
great, we are looking forward to them.
Don't eat too many fries
I would like to send my 2nd PiouPoiou back to after-sales service before March 31
but since December I had sent you an email saying that I was waiting to have received the 1st repaired one before sending the second one so as not to overload you, it might have been necessary to tell me at this time not to wait and to send it directly...
anyway, I received an email on Monday asking me to confirm the delivery relay point, but since then no news, no package tracking, is there a way to know when it will arrive at the Colis relay?
Thank you in advance
For me 10 days between the choice of the relay point and the reception at the relay point.
Alright, thanks for that info 🙂
Having restored the battery, I would like to receive the bearing kit.
Thanks in advance…
any news from pioupiou 292? because still no cuicui
Hello,
I did not receive mine and the problem is that I no longer have the number in mind and I believe that I had not put the email address. Anyway, I'm afraid he got lost. Can you reassure me on this point.
Olivier.
I'm sorry, but frankly, guys, how do you plan to do it? "I don't know the number of my device, I didn't give you my email address, so reassure me on the blog!" I would say that you have to contact the support, you, you say your full name-first name-address, used when you placed the order. There obviously there will be ways to find your device… But on the blog, no, I don't think so 🙂
Hi Nicholas,
Like many clubs, we always have our Pioupiou out of his nest.
Obviously we are worried about not seeing him come back with the good weather (for the 2nd year) and of course he misses us.
With spontaneity and enthusiasm we have joined and financed this project for more than 2 years with Club finances (ie public money) and we should now be able to justify these expenses to our members.
We are all aware of the progress made and the difficulty in solving the industrialization problems, for this we supported this project and waited a long time before the first flight of the Pioupiou.
What a joy to see it arrive in July last summer and then quickly what a disappointment to have to lose it (from sight) a few days later when it was still not installed!!!
For all these very understanding "imperfections" no one (apart from a few complainers) blames you, we have supported you (at least morally) in adversity.
Like many "Pioupioutistes" note concern is legitimate and ns leave without info (some asked to keep an accessible list), without answer (no answer to our Emails), without sign (for example an inventory on this blog ..) for long weeks ended up making us lose patience!
Can you please edit a table (which you should definitely have for product tracking) on this blog with a repair status?
Especially for all those who have not heard from their Pioupiou
Thank you for your patience and also for understanding our growing impatience.

many Piuopiou to be repaired for my part sent in November I should receive them at the beginning of April so be patient
Staying without news is always a little worrying, but the pioupious are gradually coming back. About a week after the email on the relay point, mine came back. Besides, we can clearly see the number of pioupiou growing on the map. So be patient!
I believe that one of the difficulties in this kind of project is to make people understand that they are not in the framework of the market economy but in an experimental and participatory project where the participant shares the risk with the 'entrepreneur. Yes, there is the risk of failure or delay, but if it works everyone wins! Both with a beacon at modest cost but also with a network of beacons unprecedented in its density which provides a lot of information. This is a project that would not have interested traditional finance, this is where "crowdfunding" has its interest: we are the bankers!
I couldn't have said Pascal better!
I get way too many emails. Impossible to answer them all. I have also temporarily blocked new orders to lighten the workload.
We send back Pioupious every day. The map expands. The plan is to have everything finished before the actual move.
When you ask me for information about a particular Pioupiou, it's hard to answer. For example, your Pioupiou may be almost finished assembling. So I'm going to tell you "ready this week". Except that a few days later, after assembly, the test will reveal an anomaly. We will therefore put it aside, in the lot of Pioupious "to be checked": + 1 additional week. Except that after checking, we will realize that it will be necessary to change a part that I no longer have in stock: + 1 month… This is an exaggerated example, but which illustrates how difficult it is to predict. In any case, it is an exercise that I do not know how to do. Also, most of the time I'm overly optimistic when I give a deadline, and then I get yelled at "you promised us this week / you told us the same thing X weeks ago". So now, I don't promise anything anymore. I do, and I send when it's ready.
At the same time, I take care of the steps for Pioupiou's move to the Faktory, which will give us the means to have better after-sales service. But in the short term, between repairs, ongoing manufacturing, moving and administration and the rest I work practically 7 days a week. I can not do any more.
Hi Nicolas,
All's well that ends well, Pioupiou 375 has just returned to her little nest under the Mediterranean sun despite a few recent adventures with the carrier!
Long live him.
Thank you for all the work done and good luck for the future.

Hello, Where is the Pioupiou n°141 delivered on January 21 in Grenoble?
Thank you for your reply.
I do not respond to individual requests on this blog. For these questions: support@piupiou.fr
pioupiou 38 and 1032 are back
pioupiou 297 back
Thanks again Nicolas,
Pioupiou 391 back in Saumur. He even got a GPS. Thanks Nicholas.
Hello:
You can see all the pioupious in "tolomet" app (android). Choose your country and then the baliza.
Chao.
a small question is this SIGFOX covers the cap corse? last summer it was not the case
this page should give you an idea
http://www.atim.com/sigfox/coverage/
@dudu: which side of Cape Town are you from?
I tested between Erbalonga and Santa Severa
I have the answer from SIGFOX no "deployment" planned for Corsica in summary no installation of pioupiou can be considered for the moment on the Cap Corse
"Pioupiou is moving to Belgium. The address in France will no longer be valid from April 6."
Hello, it is April 15, would it be possible to remove this message which is no longer very useful and which clutters our PiouPiou statement pages a little, Thank you in advance (hoping one day to see this famous new site arrive internet for Pioupiou )
it should come off on its own

Current maintenance
No forecasts today (moving servers and setting up 3-day forecasts)
Back to normal expected this Friday evening or Saturday morning
Nicolas works hard, give him time!
If we see this on the PiouPiou page, it's not without reason, but because there are ALWAYS a lot of people who send their Pioupiou to Grenoble, despite everything...
Very good!
Pioupiou 110 back home in the Netherlands, and working very well.
Only positioned on the map in our address in Artemare, but no problem with that.
Thanks Nicholas.
Arnold
You lit it at home, hence its position.
The update of the GPS position is done every 4 days certainly to save the battery.
Yes I know thank you. I was waiting for the repositioning on the map.
Position is good now!
Arnold
