Here is the video:

You can also upload your videos through the product page!

Used and reduced page updated

2008-03-12T22:36:00.002Z

We had not updated the used and reduced page for ages so they have built up. We have just updated it now so there are loads of great bargains on there now. We also have some brand new end of line fibreglass nitro and electric boats which are not on there yet so if you are looking for a top of the range fibreglass boat give us a call on 01625 610031 and we can tell you what we have in stock at the time.

We have had a delivery of new items that are now on the site. Check out our new Spy Car, new boats, new pro tank, new P51D brushless plane and our new range of entry level 2ch and 3ch helicopters. All the pictures and info is now on the site.

UPDATE ON XRC 1/5TH DELIVERY DATE

2007-08-23T15:09:00.000+01:00

We have just received an update on the next delivery of XRC petrol models. It should be delivered to our warehouse on Thursday 30th August.

Reduced items page has just been updated

2007-08-22T22:59:00.000+01:00

We've been naughty and not updated our list of reduced items for ages so they've built up a little. This means that there is now a much bigger list than usual so loads of fantastic savings and offers to be had. There are some amazing prices on there as the busy season is fast approaching so we have priced to clear as we want to get them sold before we get really busy.

SUPER STRONG BOMBER PLANE NOW IN

2007-04-05T22:42:00.000+01:00

If you are looking to get into the fun world of radio controlled aeroplanes but with a model that still looks good then this is the best choice. Most entry level planes do not actually look like realistic planes which takes some of the enjoyment out of the experience, but with this little plane you get the best of both worlds. It is still super tough and very hard to break at an entry level price but looks like a little bomber plane.

4CH APACHE HELICOPTER JUST ADDED TO THE NITROTEK RANGE

2007-04-05T22:37:00.000+01:00

This little helicopter looks amazing and is very easy to fly. There are now a lot of twin blade helicopters on the market but none look as good as the Apache. Twin blade helicopters can been flown by anyone with minimum practice and are a great way to get into the hobby.

MICRO HELICOPTER JUST ARRIVED

2007-04-05T22:30:00.000+01:00

This palm sized indoor helicopter is only 18cm long it is the smallest heli on the market. The helicopters come on three different bands and three different colours (red, yellow and green) allowing three to be used at the same time.

These micro heli's are a lot of fun and so easy to to use.

AMAZING FLYING BOAT NOW IN

2007-04-05T22:13:00.000+01:00

Flying boats are great fun and a great challenge. As a boat they are very quick and easy to control but to fully master flying them takes a lot of practice, perfect for those who enjoy taking the time to master a hobby. The boats can even run on grass that makes them one of the most practical and satisfying models on the market.

Check out the video of them in action, there amazing!
