Topic: NEW ESM WARBIRDS

HI

Just found two new ESM Warbirds.

Ok, the T-28 Trojan isnīt really new, but a new colour sheme.

And the AT-6.

regards

Mirco

The full size T28 has a very pronounced dihederal which seems absent from the model:



I'm afraid this really gripes with me because it's part of the basic character of the aeroplane. For some reason it's a common trait in models (especially ARTFs) - the ripmax P-51 suffers a similar crass indignity (or at least it did when it came out - I don't know if this has been corrected in the later kits).

This is the ESM T28 will be here in the UK hopefully end of next month

The 2 models mentioned are not ESM models,   they have been sourced by kmp, who no longer are the U.S. importers of ESM kits,

PDR,
I would not worry too much about the dihedral. To me it looks like those models have just been loosely assembled for the photo, so the wings probably are just sitting there without  being supported properly. Just a thought,

0114jason,

How did the test flight go with the T-28?  Are you going to post a video? What engine and retracts were used.  What was the AUW?

When we get a vid,  it will be posted,   but i already know the answer,  it went well, and the aircrafts a pleasure to fly,

Well it's not allowed on the public road until it has registration and tax, obviously.
