Model of aircraft (remote controlled)/gliders?

where can i find models or graphic diagrams of aircraft which can be remotecontrolled %26amp; look like the real ones but the size?Model of aircraft (remote controlled)/gliders?
Try a hobby shop.They are in the phone book.HobbytownUSA has a nationwide chain.Model of aircraft (remote controlled)/gliders?
Model shops, model magazines...sources are numerous and varied. One thing comes to mind. You say r/c aircraft. I presume you are not at present an r/c modeller/flyer and are looking at beginning this fascinating hobby. If this is the case, consult with a reputable model shop or model flying club before purchasing your model. You will need something you can learn to fly with. The club will probably offer you tuition. Don't go it alone. You will be very disappointed and the hobby will lose another potential flyer.
The Acadmey fo Model Aeronautics is the national sanctioning body for radio controlled aircraft. Thier site is linked below. You might check the competition calendar for when there si a scale competition or a soraing competition near you. That way you could see some of the planes and talk with the guys who fly them. They also have a link to find an airplane club near you and hobby shops near you.





The second link is for Tower Hobbies, and the third is for Horizon Hobbies. These are two of the largest of the hobby distributors in the US, and both will sell directly over the internet to you. Horizon is a wholesaler primarily and you should be able to get their planes at almost any local hobby shop cheaper than through the net, while Tower is a mail order hobby shop. You might find their planes at the local store also, but the price will be about the same as through the net.
