Hi
I have tried to find a reseller in Europe, but it seems there are export restrictions on the Torch. However, not on something like the SparkFun RTK mosaic-X5.
Can you elaborate on that? Are there somethings in the works solving that or is this restriction final?
The RTK Torch uses the UM980 GNSS receiver from Unicore, a subsidiary of BDStar which was listed by the BIS for export control. We’re still checking to see if we can export to Europe, but generally speaking, it’s severely limited.

Thank for the reply - I hope it gets sorted.
Not to question the logic - but that chip is dead easy to get a hold on. Simple ebay search.
Why no sell a DIY version 
without the chip.
I’d imagine because that would also be looked on dimly by the authorities… and be a source of a lot of support requests
