Absolutely yes, a D9 mold is being made as we speak. Estimated release time will be about June. Given ideal teamwork on the project.......Andrew has invited all opinions on the color scheme, he wished me to pass on.

No pricing info yet? Guess we have to wait till they have been oficially introduced to the world first. That T-28 has been stuck in my head since I first seen this tread, If there due April I want one of each.

Hopes the D9 will look better than the ESM FW190, which was a real disapointment.

Can the retracts be bought from Robart now or will they be producing them soon, and will the G-62 fit totaly inside the cowl without cutting it up on the sides.

I would recommend if you are interested enough in knowing the price, call KMP. 888-968-7251. In the meantime, check out the new pics that will be going up on the website soon. Notice the prop/engine combo for the Saito 450 if you can afford it. The hidden switch panels built in are nice.

The retracts can be purchased or ordered along with your aircraft purchase. By the time the planes arrive, Robart will most likely have the retract systems available for delivery.

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'll take the one that's most rare, and fits like a glove...

If the D9 has all the issues with the earlier A8 fixed and is close to scale I will definately buy one too. I would love too see some early pics of it

Yes. It have different gunhood because it had a 20mm cannon in the spinner instead of two MG13 over the engine,and bigger compressor intake.

That is a beauty Jeff, I live in the Northwest and I didn't know there was a sample of one here. Is that the Boeing Museum or where?
I could use some up close and personal pics of the bird.

flytaildragger: Do we know if the D9 will have the early or late style canopy? I don't know what level of scale KMP is going for, but the canopy can effect which paint scheme is correct for the model. Early style is first in the pic.

Any chance I could ask , the upcoming zero , will it be a A6M5 , M2,M3 ? I just purchased a yellow zero but am holding off purchasing the engine etc , until I see what KMP is offering , RC budget has been a little thin so I have to budget accordingly

AT this point, I don't know what the details are. When I know, you will too. In the meantime, you can offer your suggestions to [email protected]
