Snoop Kmax Endorsement

After looking at a partly unassembled Kmax on the weekend that was being readied for transport back to the US after a very quiet Fire Season in Oz.
I pondered on how Pilots obtain endorsements on such little beasties.
ie: 1 seat.

Just Curious.

Sensible answers preferred please

I've been told that the factory are the only ones who can endorse pilots, and they will only do so if they are satisfied that pilot is suitably experienced to hold an endorsment in something with so much grunt. The flight training I believe is carried out in a Husky

I dont know if a word of any of this is true, so if anyone knows better, please correct me.
Cheers

Kmax endorsements are conducted at the factory in CT. Training is done in the husky, but the kmax does have a second seat, if you like fresh air!
