This store has a wide range of specialist products for model based hobbies, primarily radio controlled cars and planes. Staff are always incredibly helpful and will spend hours chatting to you and helping with a project. Some of the items here can be a tad pricey but the helpfulness of the staff makes up for this entirely.

This hobby shop specialises in remote control airplanes with a small section on remote control cars. It has plenty of tools, batteries, spray paints, tyres…quite a small shop but a big selection. The staff are extremely knowledgeable and helpful - keen to give advice and if you need anything specific they will even order it in for you. This shop used to be great for remote control cars but they seemed to really reduce their range of this and specialise more in remote control airplanes. However they still have lots of other products for different remote control objects. It is located within walking distance from Hainault tube station which is on the central line.
