Posted on TRF from Oliver - European Rocketeer:
"But seriously, our German Quest distributor is currently developing a new engine line. From what I heared, Bill Stine just visited him last year so we may see this engines comming to the US sooner or later. I just saw first prototypes last Friday including D engines in 18 mm casings - looking great!"
Check this out:

An 18mm D7?
24mm C12 and D18s
These are composite propellants, not black powder.
These engines will be available (in Germany) in the next six months, replacing the older WECO line.
The German Klima website is fun to look through even without the English:

Dick Stafford made reference to this post on his Rocket Dungeon Blog.
I do agree with Dick, there has been many products promised in the past that never made it to the consumer. That's probably why I had a question mark in the title bar. Still, interesting stuff.
