I have no problems with CMP. I.E. you get what you pay for and they certainly are a builders ARF. I really can't mean ARF. I would say half way between most companies ARFs and a kit. BTW CMPs latest ''ARF'', a 109 I think is much better. It might qualify for the real ARF designation.
The problem is with Nitro and they do know what they are doing by stating that they are selling a DA. Why not just state what the engine really is rather than trying to get people that don't understand to buy a fake DA. You really have to be a low life to do that.
Did a Google for DA engine and Nitro:
http://www.nitroplanes.com/fm01-10d.html Low, low, scum.
CMP and Nitroplanes are the same company. The company uses different names to confuse the buyer because the bad rap, and they think we can't refuse the low price and pray on us Westerns because of it. If you see Nitroploanes, CMP they are all one company. Don't be fooled. I'm not sure if Flyboy Models is the same company, but the quality is just as bad and they too are from China. I'm suspecting they are from the same company but I can't proove it.
I do think that many of the E-bay aircraft we see on the market is Nitroplanes/CMP. So I don't buy my planes from E-bay either just to be safe.
