RE: The New KMP Signature Series Warbirds
Hellcat, the manuals for the ESM product was a sore spot for some time... We hope,, especially since they are under certain directives, that the new manufacturer pays closer attention to these details. Andrew Kondor is heading up that department, you can email him to put your two cents worth in on the manuals, but I think he already knows. AT any rate, if you can't read Chiamerican, you have me to ask.

RE: The New KMP Signature Series Warbirds
At this time, we are going to be behind the 8 ball delivering product to North America. Australia may come into the picture later, in the meantime, if you really really want one, the shipping will just have to be a part of your acquisition, sorry. You asked on the T-28 for power. It is a big Fuselage. It will require a 45cc unless you can find a 30 that can produce 4 HP.

Do we have any idea what color scheme the D9 will be? If not, can we make suggestions? I was going to throw money at the upcoming 50cc ESM Corsair, but will hold off for this if it looks as good as the first two planes.

No, the color scheme has not been established yet. Your suggestions would be welcome. You can email those to [email protected] and they will be considered. Right now, the D9 mold is under construction.

It is nice to have options. All I know is the KMP unit will have tough landing gear for the Saito 450. ESM has been our product line for some time and we have produced some decent aircraft through them.

I definitly want one of these im a big T-28 fan and I have the Pica T28 and a Scratch built one also. Of course they have G-26's in them and they fly with authority. This is a very nice model whats the price? Cant wait to install a big gasser on this one.

The KMP unit will have better detailing, construction, features. Better gear system based on history. The nosegear for the KMP unit will be beefed up to accomodate the 6.5 lb Saito 450. I don't know about the ESM unit based on history.

Wow....
What is the diameter of both trojan, texan??? Cowls?
That engine weights more than the Seidel 7-70, but the 7-70 has a bigger foot print, so
I don't think it would fit easily...

Hey Andrew, do you provide landing gear with that T-28?
Oh BTW - next time let a nice girl hold these planes
Girls and Warbirds perfect combo....

I sent in some color scheme suggestions for the D9. Here was my number one pick. Come on guys, tell KMP I have great taste and that you like it too!

We will have the T-28, the AT6, The PC9 and the L4 on display. Should give everyone who attends a real insight look into how they are made and what to expect out of the future releases. Andrew mentioned that we shall perhaps have a picture of the 190 D9 there to show everyone as well.
