RE: CPLR new plane OSMOSE
I had the oportunity to visit the CAmodel factory in Argentina and met Marcelo and Juan Carlos for a factory tour and processes. I saw the two molds used to fabricate the fuselages of the Osmose and they are flawless and very smooth, the quality is high and the fuselages weighted to be approved, this is a large model and weight is critical if is to be under 5Kg.
All the parts are weighted and recorded by airplane serial number before leaving the factory, this is done as part of their quality control, so whatever kit you get they know the weights, the only problem is the conditions in wich the airplanes are stored by the dealer and how long it takes to get there from Argentina, we talked about the pictures we saw in a previous post and concluded it was most likely caused by the heat generated inside the container while traveling to it's destination, either way, Marcelo told me they warrant their products and if the dealer do not give a proper response then contact them directly.
Now that all the parts are bagged and a trip to USA being not that long, they should be fine, and quality as expected.
I also got my ARF Deluxe in Carbon/Kevlar, and the quality is outstanding, I just didn't take pictures of it yet.
Attached are pictures of the CAmodel depot and some of the fuselages before shipping.
