Come on, If anyone buys that thinking you're getting a DA,, they shouldn't be ordering online
NitroPlanes is an Honest Vendor,, lets give them the benifit of the doubt and say that maybe just a typo
Did you miss the first post???
Desert Aircraft has asked them a number of times to please remove the misleading ad and they have not.
When you blow off the real DA you know;
This is NOT a mistake by Nitro
That is what gets me upset.
BTW there are many many factories in China. Not every brand is even made in the same factory. A really great product designed and sold by
Goldenskiesrc.com is the Crossfire. Lee Schantz has talked with us and he has to work very hard to make sure he gets the quality he wants. One factory even shut down and took $25,000 from him along with his fixtures.
So it is tough to know who is doing what in China.
Goldenskiesrc.com is finally coming out with the Falco this fall (yahooo). Only two years after he wanted it out. Sounds like he has to have one factory do the fuse (fiberglass) and one do the wings. So Nitro could be the one importing CMP. I would go do some more research before I stated something like that as fact or not. However, I do not believe that Nitro has a lock on CMP. Look at all the other stuff they grab. Some good and some terrible.
I think it is dumb to say that it is ok to say you are selling a
DA Engine and not state that is is not from Desert Aircraft. Desert Aircraft even now gets people who what support from them for DL and DLE engines. The DL engine is so much a copy of the Desert aircraft engine that some parts will exactly fit. So DA should be allowed their name. US made, designed, and so great that DLE couldn't improve on the design and ripped off DA. So much for patent and copyrights with China.
