Bonjour Nick,

As I was the second person to pre-order one, I hope mine will also be shipped soon.

Is France closer than USA for China ;) ?
This is international transportation, and customs are different from each country! We hope you can understand that we have not stopped working.

They were shipped today and “Monitor” will only be on the first batch because of trademark issues

WOW!!!

Sort of wish I'd managed to order one now.

Jin and his "team" have certainly come a long way with their products!

I received an email with tracking number and the only thing it says is “China Post”. I’ll let you know if it updates…

Hi there,
...“Monitor” will only be on the first batch because of trademark issues
Is the logo casted in on the first series or is it a sticker?

Kind regards
Thomas

Hi Raphael,
So you are one of the lucky ones who got a machine from the first series.
I asked Okmo if there were any machines with the logo still available, but unfortunately I didn't get an answer.
Another possibility would be a sticker, but it would have to be fuel resistant.
I'm currently considering whether I should order from Enginediy.
There is still a discount of 100$.
Unfortunately, the machines are probably without a logo :-(

Kind regards,
Thomas

Bonjour Thomas,

I had the opportunity to place my order at the start of the offer, which I also did for the future Z01 ;)

I like sharing with Jin and use this address : service@okmomodel.com, so do you ?

He always answers to my messages.

Based on what I see :
https://www.enginediyshop.com/products/retrol-okmo-b01-hit-and-miss-gasoline-engine-model?_pos=16&_sid=a5ccd24a1&_ss=r

The B01 engine sold by Enginediy seems the same, why would they change the mold ?
