Muroc1,

Just to give you a few more.

Wild Hare RC, OMP, Extreme Flight RC, Chief Aircraft Inc, Airborne Models, Troy Built Models, RC Guys, Texas ARF Airplanes, and the list goes on.

Muroc1

Zippi,

Sweet!! I'll get the websites and update shortly. Appreciate the names.

Do you want "manufacturers," or do you want a list of dealers that a regular person can contact to buy a product?

It is a huge difference.

I doubt that nitroplanes, and many of the other dealers you already listed, actually manufacture any of their ARFs. They are importers/resellers who contract with manufacturers.

Muroc1

Yes, that's what I am looking for. I have updated the list to reflect what I am trying to do. I don't see an need to list them if you can't buy from them. I'll have to review the ones on the list to see if that's the case on some of them.

heres another for your list,

OK, some updates are needed. Tower is www.towerhobbies.com and not greatplanes.com

In general, you do not buy product directly from
(Great Planes)… www.greatplanes.com/airplanes/arf-glow.html
Top Flite… www.top-flite.com/airplanes/gold-arfs.html
You can buy replacement parts through them but the planes and accessories are sold at the retail level by Tower, other online dealers, and local hobby shops.

I think we got them all. Thanks again for the help putting this together.

I wonder if I should go for electric ARF builders/sellers now.
