FAQs about our model aeroplanes

Do model planes require construction?

It depends on the individual product. Some plastic model planes come assembled and can be displayed right out of the box while others will require construction which could include gluing and decal application. You’ll be able to tell if a model aircraft requires construction by the product description — if you’re unsure please feel free to get in touch!

What supplies do I need for building model aircraft kits?

You may need some hobby supplies to build your model aircraft (unless it comes ready assembled). If your model aircraft requires construction, you may need the following items:

• Plastic model kit glue
• A hobby knife and/or a sprue cutter
• Paint and paintbrushes
• Cutting mats
