Possible breach of license

From the wording on the front page, it would appear they are building their own design main boards, not using the Module version. I have no idea if they have an agreement with B&G.

Re: Possible breach of license
If you look at their News Page, you'll see pics of MicroSquirt Modules in the older stuff, and bare PCBs with footprints for a uSM in the newer stuff.

Re: Possible breach of license
The Gen8 is MS3-module based?
Nice setup for 499 Pounds, but isn't that ~less than the MS3 module retails for?

False alarm from me there, I didn't see all the pictures. It would seem everything is in order.
