Model planes

What are model airplanes?

Model airplanes are replicas based on real aircraft. The manufacturer looks at the construction drawings of the original and makes a smaller, miniature version of this. These scale models have different scales. So you have very detailed types and productions that are more superficial.

Most model airplanes you buy belong on a stand after building. However, you also have kits where you make a radio-controlled airplane. These are often a bit more complicated to make because they also involve electronics.

How do you start aircraft modeling?

With Speedcube’s offerings, it is quite easy to get started with aircraft modeling. In fact, the construction kits we offer require little to no tools and also no glue. This makes it tremendously beginner-friendly, which explains why so many people get into the hobby.

In general, it is better to start with wooden modeling than, say, metal modeling kits because of the material. Check the product description to see if it is suitable for children or adults. Should you want even more than just assembling the parts, you can also consider painting it afterwards. Then you’ll need a brush and some paint.
