ESU LokPilot 59941 Already Released?

[MetroRedLine]

I've been out of the active modeling loop since Summer, just getting back into things. Just wondering if the ESU LokPilot 59941 was already released? It's the non-sound drop-in decoder for Kato widebody locos (F-units, E-units, PAs, EMD F40PH, GE P42). Been waiting for these for a long time and I've already had it with the old Digitrax decoders in my non-sound P42s not retaining their speed curve settings.

Some retailers list it as "Coming Summer 2024" and others list it as "Sold Out". Did I miss out on the stock or is it still forthcoming?

This LokPilot version has been released at least 8 months ago as I bough several back in April 2024 from Streamlined Backshop.  They do seem to be out of stock, but they will eventually be produced again.

There was the Wutter board too, right? I think I still have some.

Yes, but that one takes a decoder with Next18 connector (not E24) and that makes it thicker overall (if the thickness matters).

Ah, yes! Different connector.
