QUALITY MODEL AIRCRAFT KITS, FOAM WINGS + BESPOKE POLYSTYRENE PRODUCTS


SUMMER 2024

Kits and Wings
Kits and Wings

Quality Model Aircraft Kits and Foam Wings.

The company came into being in 1990 basically by accident! It all came about
when myself (Bill Manley) and another member of the Royston model aircraft club
spotted an article in a model magazine about some American flyers doing R/C
combat in the States.



 We just had to have a go but needed a suitable aircraft for the job, something
quick to build and relatively cheap. Before long we had knocked up a pair of
glorified control line combat machines without the strings! They flew superbly
from day one, .15 motors, 3ft wide and 2lbs all up weight, great fun.

SLINGSBY T67 FIREFLY


FUN FLY 15

Within a very short time there were about a dozen of us flying combat and
formation at Royston with the model now known as the Fun Fly 15.In due course I
sent some pictures and information about our activities to RC Model World
magazine as a news item and low and behold they offered to buy the design and
market it through their plans service.After thinking it over I decided that with
a bit of effort I could probably produce the whole kit myself, so I took the
bull by the horns and I was in business.

Seven other designs were produced over the next few years and we regularly
attended the larger model shows up and down the country until other more
lucrative work commitments forced us to go mail order only. Obviously foam wings
were required for several of the new kits and after some instruction from a
couple of “old hands” I was producing these in house.
