ANNOUNCEMENT UPDATE:  In response to numerous requests from customers, I've elected to continue offering plans and canopies for my designs.  Plans are $15 with shipping, and will include two sheets of full-size plans and detailed construction notes.  Vacuum-formed canopies are $10.  Click here for online ordering with PayPal

Also, foam wing cores for all designs that require them are available from FlyingFoam.com.  Simply e-mail them to request a quote; they already have all the geometry needed to produce the cores, and their quality is outstanding. 

KIT AVAILABILITY:   All kit inventory has sold out.  No more laser cut kits will be produced in the foreseeable future.  Thanks to all who have supported this venture for more than 11 years. 


Hellcat Speed 400   My first commercial design is a balsa and foam model of the classic US Navy fighter. Accurate scale outline and surprising performance.

 

   

Bearcat Speed 400   This model of Roy Grumman's masterpiece is the follow-on to the popular Hellcat. Also available is a conversion kit for "Rare Bear", the greatest of all Reno Racers.

Corsair Speed 400   The "Bent-Winged Bird" is one of the most iconic US Navy and Marine fighters. Also available is a conversion plan for the F2G-1 "Super Corsair".

P47 Thunderbolt   The "Jug" was one of the most important multi-role fighters to serve in the Army Air Force.  This design includes both the Razorback and Bubbletop versions.

F4F Wildcat   This outstanding design is a model of the stubby fighter that won immortality in the carrier battles of 1942 and in the skies over Guadalcanal.



 
A6M Zero   The Zero makes a great companion to the Wildcat.  Both are built to the same 1/14 scale, highlighting the small size of this iconic fighter. 


CH-47 Chinook    This model of the classic tandem-rotor helicopter is featured in the Winter 2008 issue of Model Airplane News "RC Helicopter".  Click here for engine assembly tips.
