Has anyone out the had any dealings with ARFPro models. They say they are the North American distributor for ESM Models and Accesseris. I have been looking for the ESM landing gear for the ESM 74" Corsair and it seems they are the only ones who have it. I am always a little worried about ordering anything from someone I have never done business with because I was taken for a pretty sum by someone on the net before. That is way I am asking if anyone has done business with ARFPro models

Order from VQWarbirds..

I tried and Tomas is out of stock and won't have any in until mid to late October. I need them for a War Bird event I plan to attend on the first weekend in October. Have you had any dealings with ARFPro Models?

I purchased an ESM kit from Troybuilt a few weeks ago, and it was actually drop shipped from Bob at Arf Pros. I will admit I was a bit worried about the whole deal at first, but the kit was shipped right away and I had no issues. I am not sure if that answers your question or not.

No one has the ESM 73" Corsair gear instock right now. I just talked to Tomas this afternoon. VQ does have the Sierra gear in for that plane thought... The ESM gear I have had on the past did not work very well....

Hi, yes I have done busness with them, they took over for TBM and they are only a short distance away from them. They also have a local hobbyshop and will let you pick up products there, I like this I can put my hands on the products, and save shipping. They are veryknowlagable and excited about the products as well. They made me feel comfortable with my transaction. Hope this info helps

if Thomas is out then arf pros are out, Thomas posts availability as soon as the container comes in

I just heard from Bob at ARFPro's this afternoon and he said he had the ESM 74" F4U gear instock. From what I have heard from others he and other post ARFPro's is now the distributor for the ESM product line. I went ahead and ordered the gear Now we will see how long it takes to get here. I have already recieved an invoice from ARFPro's with a tracking #[X(]

Since ARFPro is the sole importer to the US for ESM planes they will almost certainly be doing all the shipping of ESM planes regardless of who you order them through. The only other source for ESM planes is KMP in Canada, and from their messages they will be selling them only in Canada. But you might be able to go to Canada to get one?

Bob at ARFPro's came threw. I now have a nice set of ESM retracts for my F4U Corsair. It looks like if you want something that is a ESM product call Bob and he'll get it out to you.
