Old School Model Works : R/C Kits

We love building kits
and we know you'll love building our kits.

We've put in the extra work to make sure you'll have the greatest chance of success
the first time, and every time.

Just mentioning that someone should build their own kit will scare off a lot of modelers, but it shouldn't be that way. What if there was a series of kits that took a lot of the guesswork out of building? And what if those kits not only flew great, but brought back some of the great designs from years gone by?

That's what Old School Model Works is all about.

We're offering a laser-cut series of kits that you can not only build and fly successfully, but personalize them to your own taste. Cover and finish your kit like you want, rather than being stuck with "me-too" offerings that look exactly the same as the others at your local field.

Now that you know about us, click on the links below for more information on each of our laser-cut R/C kits.

It is based off a 1970's World Engines kit and is a lot of fun to fly alone. But it's tons of fun to fly in groups.

Swept Back. Forward Thinking. Retro Goodness.

Our Comet captures all of the jet-age looks and excitement of the sleek 1950’s design it’s based on.
