We’re hard at work tracking down new products for you, and we regularly receive container shipments of tried-and-true items and all kinds of new products. We’d like to showcase a few highlights here; the rest can be found in our online store. If you can’t find a specific product, we’d love to hear your suggestions, as always!

Toolkit stands for well-designed and high-performance charging solutions for model making. The product range extends from compact chargers for lithium cells to high-performance chargers for LiPo batteries up to 8S, covering virtually all applications—from beginners to ambitious competition pilots. The brand is characterized by high-quality craftsmanship, precise measurement technology, and a clear focus on practical functionality.
The YuXiang MD 500 is an exceptionally detailed small-scale helicopter that currently has virtually no competition in its size class. The five-blade main rotor, combined with modern GPS support, ensures stable and true-to-prototype flight characteristics, while the fine scale details impressively reflect the character of the legendary prototype. As a result, the MD 500 appeals to both discerning scale enthusiasts and beginners who, despite modern assistance systems, do not want to compromise on scale details.

With the FMS T-28 Trojan in the 410-mm RTF format, FMS is introducing a particularly compact and beginner-friendly scale model to the market. The built-in gyro stabilization ensures excellent flight stability, while the durable EPP foam and nose-wheel landing gear can withstand even rough landings. As a complete RTF kit, the T-28 is clearly aimed at beginners, but its true-to-scale appearance also makes it a lot of fun for experienced pilots.

The Vapcell 14500 Li-ion battery in AA format offers a modern and sustainable alternative to traditional AA batteries. The built-in USB-C charging port eliminates the need for a separate charger. Thanks to their high capacity, built-in protection circuit, and over 1,000 charge cycles, these AA rechargeable batteries are ideal for long-term use in model building and everyday life.

With the Pilot-RC Edge 540 39, made of Flex Foam, balsa, and carbon fiber, Pilot-RC is expanding its lineup to include a compact model designed exclusively for 3D aerobatics, yet with the character of a full-size model. The sophisticated hybrid construction ensures exceptionally low weight combined with high structural strength and enables extremely precise, neutral flight characteristics. Thanks to its compact dimensions, the model is ideal for flying after work and also offers a comparatively affordable entry point into the challenging world of 3D aerobatics.
