I heard Easy Tiger was going to becomming out with their own Douglass Dauntless... Has anyone heard or seen of that one ?
Their Avenger got a good review, so maybe that will be nice.

Evil,

Too bad you had a bad experience. My dealings with them has been nothing by good. I had an issue with retracts too and they sent me a whole new valve pack and hose setup. Since that no other issues. Had a minor nose over with my Bearcat and asked for a new cowl. Got it very quickly!

I would like to see their OV-10 Bronco offered again. That's a great plane!

Jeff, I sent three emails and called twice.

I got no response at all.

Too bad I didn't get to WRAM, as I would have returned them in person...

That's too bad! Andrew has been very responsive and so have the other folks at KMP. Maybe they just don't like you

Oh I know Andrew doesn't like me. I hurt his feelings when I bashed the Fw 190 and then provided data to backup the bashing. I knew that going into buying the retracts, but everyone said that it was worth it and KMP is a great company. I learned the hard way. No big deal though, lesson learned, review of the retracts posted and hopefully it will help someone in avoiding a $270 mistake...

I'm looking forward to seeing someone's build and post for the easytiger Feisler Storch.
We all know that Arf's will probably never be able to please all of us out there, so We'll make do or bash, or build our own...So we can put a moretoreum on digging at the manufacturers; at least they're trying, and it seems to be a good start.
I'm just glad to see some of the more unusual planss being manufactured...The proof will be in the pudding when we see the build and hear how she flies.
Whomever gets one, please post pics as you go.
If Easy tiger drops the price by $100.00 I'll get one myself.[8D]

Yep, its just Andrew proving he doesn't run his business very well.

Not only does he lie about his models, he sells stuff that is poor and doesn't support it.

Karma sucks. Every poor review is worth dozens of good reviews.

Evil,

All my experiences with KMP and their models has been positive. They are the only company out there trying to produce a high quality scale model for a resonable price. Sure they have problems, but no more than any other company out there. At least they make a nice variety of models from civilian to military. I really think they are working hard on their customer relations and if you give them another chance would impress you.

That being said...more larger planes like their Hurricane would be nice!

Hi All: Sometimes when I am in China the internet isn't readily available and if I'm not in the office the staff will always do their best to service our customers. Occasionally I personally can not be there to answer all questions within 24 hours. My frequent trips to China as well as to other destinations such as our warehouse in Florida and the many tradeshows we exhibit at do keep me out of the office often. (10 weeks per year just work related) I do however answer ALL e-mails. Often e-mails do get rejected by other people's servers. We can't do anything about that. We always try our best and support all our faithful customers. By the way the only e-mail I check is [email protected] its not filtered and comes directly to me.

Akondor is right, the Easytiger Storch also comes with intergrated lighting thats pretty cool. i wonder if thats the only color scheme that they are gonna have. it would be nice to see one with the AFRIKA corps colors






Good luck and happy flying

Curtis did a mod of the landing gear for the plane. Maybe he will share the information on this?

The Landing gear would be the 1st major change, 2nd would be to add the leading elde slats.
make the wing lights a lil' smaller and repaint her. Modifying the dear looks like it would be easy work.
As soon as the $$ drops, I'll probably snag one... the changes and updates look like they'd be a chinch to do.[8D]
I heard Easy Tiger was doing a Douglass Dauntless and a B-26 Marauder...Those would be a sight to see. Am anxiously looking forward to the new releases.

It will be interesting to see what the KMP Storch looks like. I wonder if they have all the items you mentioned above?

Hi All,

Why does the administration allow Evil Merlin to continue to post ?



Cheers,

Maybe you should start your own model company and show us all how it's done. I have dealt with KMP and Andrew. Great company and an awesome guy. Your grips are minor and these are ARF aircraft that have more detail than anything out there for the price. Now if they just made a FW190-D9 or D11.

It's about time for a nice Storch. One that you can easily put skis on for the winter time here in the northeast US.

The ETM Storch looks interesting but, it is pricey and personally, I think lights are a waste. I only fly during the daytime and lights can't really be seen then so what's the point.

I would prefer to wait and see what KMP is going to do. I have had 2 of their ME109's and I won a scale ARF competition with one of them. I have no complaints about their stuff or their customer service, etc. Their stuff isn't perfect but, it's better than everything else out there for the money.

Lately, I've been spending more time and money building my WWII gun collection rather than on airplanes. The Osama administration is threatening to ban many of the firearms that I have yet to buy. I swapped my award winning ME109E for a Colt 1911 .45 in mint condition. At least I know that it won't depreciate in value nearly as fast as my stocks did.

BTW, nice pics.
