All, We have 9 Days left to fund our Kickstarter project, and we are only a little over half way funded. It's been a crazy ride. Just last week I had a phone interview with Climate Wire about our project. The article was released and picked up by many different outlets including: Scientific American...

Thank you both! This project was launched in response to losing some very good fellow chasers in May of 2013, who were also researching tornadoes. Traditionally the probe is placed in the path and proves to be a dangerous task. We decided to change that and use a popular upcoming technology genre to...

It's similar to Kickstarter, just without money our rewards. You basically have to raise your pledged amount of supporters to get the shout out. The only problem I see is trying to raise awareness for the Kickstarter and the Thunderclap. Maybe some how combine them?

I think the best way is to advertise yourself. I tagged Kickstarter's Facebook page in every post I shared and they finally shared my project. I got a couple of backers, but a good bit of traffic on my page. People are watching I think, but they are procrastinating. In a few days I'm going to offer ...

Facebook was a waste for me. I paid $5.00 just to test their boost post and I reached 2,300 people but had a total of 12 actions on it.

Awesome looking project! We also got staff picked! Very nice surprise! Good luck on your project. We are asking for the same amount, but in American currency.

I am in the same boat. I just launched my Kickstarter last week. We have 30 days to go, but still struggling to get over $1000. I feel like I am making no progress, but it is still early. I have written many journalists that have similar interests as my project. I haven't really seen any benefit fro...

I think this is a great idea! We are developing UAVs for tornado research. Our goal is to intercept tornadoes with our specially designed UAVs in order to gather valuable surface data for meteorologists and engineers. We are gearing up for the 2015 storm season. Check out our project and tell us wha...
