The short kits include formers for fuselage, ribs for the wing(s), wing tips, all odd shaped cut parts. Wendell does have an accessories suppliers list.... accessories suppliers We would appreciate feed back on these kits, balsabug1@aol.com, let us know if something was missing, or not cut right, or just that you are enjoying the kit.. if there are problems we will fix it, we would like to know our customers are happy with their building experience.

Think RC

This is a great site for helicopters

I finally found a great model to build. Being retired from Coast Guard Aviation I thought I would post this one.

Hey I finally found a place where I can build a HU-16 albatross from the Coast Guard.

Check out these electric engines

What if we could use it for the Mosquito helicopter?  That will be a great day when we can fly ourselves with electrics.  Check the site out.  Its worth it.

Here are a couple of my ships. Always adding to them, always changing.

Being retired Coast Guard, I am partial to Coast Guard aircraft.  Here is an old Fairchild C-123 we used in the 60's.

AI Aardvark

I was told about this site by a Mentor/Sensei of mine.  Check out the detail on these software sim aircraft.   Great price too.  Free!

A Scale Canadian model website

Here is a nice site to check out vintage airplane models.  The detail is excellent quality.  Read through the past blog posts.  And check out all of the links.  There is a lot of information here.

Here is the Mother of all model index sites

Located at this link are over 2000 links for models and tools.  I haven't seen anything bigger than this.  Great site, and cudo's to the owner Tony Matteliano.  Check out his site and browse till you pass out!

Site with some model links

This site has more going on than just models, but it does have a nice page with links to other resources.  Try it out.

Helipal Electric Helicopters

Here is a nice site to buy some cool Electric Helicopters.  Check it out if your an electric fan like me.

Here is a German site for modeling, very professional builds.

Look at the models on this page.  It takes modeling to another level.  These models are very detailed.  Look at the guys face on the LunaDiver Stingray half down the page.  Amazing!

R/C sailplanes

I was looking for more blogs about flying and found this one on Blogspot.  Sailplanes are always a great choice for R/C flying.

Model training, building, finishing, designing

Something I haven't found is a place to go to learn more about model building.  I'm not talking about on the web, I'm talking somewhere local to me to attend in person.  Wouldn't that be cool to go get more instruction from professional model builders.  That would make a cool small business.

Any ideas from all of you readers would be beneficial to all of us.  Does anyone want to send me stuff to post?

Another cool model site

I am always amazed at the sites that pop up on the net.  This makes modeling a lot more fun.
Check it out.

And yet I keep finding more sites with tons of fun stuff

Check out this site for more planes.
