The following items are known issues with the first pre-production units shipped November 15th. We are working to resolve them. Some resolutions will involved shipping replacement parts.
The improvements and errata listed here are a subset of all that have been gathered.

LED cables have incorrect JST-SH/STEMMAQT cables. While they do have a 1mm JST like cable our supplier seems to have used a similar but incompatible connector. We are working to manually make replacement cables. We will work to send out replacements to the original list of people. Please report if you need one.
Note that ADAFRUIT does sell the cables with the right type of connectors here: https://www.adafruit.com/product/4397
The Plastic XT60 mount is a bit too flexible. This will not be updated for the Pre-production units. We are looking at improving the overall mounting and wiring for the battery compartment. One suggestion is a pivoting piece that would be mounted to the forward most standoff. A 3d printable part file can be provided of you want to print something locally.
>> Later kits ship with the XT60 pivoting mount
Some metal has a sharp edge, also the side skirts come to a relatively sharp point, this will be rounded more in production. The metal manufacturer will also be asked to double check the deburring of the metal edges themselves.
An improved battery cable extension holder is available to allow the battery to plug in easier. This mount swivels on the front standoff. https://airy.cognipilot.org/reference_systems/b3rb/printable/
