Plug and Play Electronics for Advanced Plastic Modelers
Our goal is to enable Advanced plastic modelers from any understanding of Electricity or Electronics by creating special effects such as, for example for Airplanes, lights & engine sequencing, realistic gun fire by synchronized light & sound, or even a full life cycle including synchronized light & sound for the Wonderful 1/48 Trumpeter Uboat-VII.
Our kits are complete end-to-end solutions, Plug & Play, providing fool proof, dead simple, safe, reliable, well documented and top shelf quality performances at decent prices.
Every kit produced will be as accurate as possible by respecting as well the performances and technical characteritics of the real scale original as the scale effect expected for a scale model.
As we love most of the Plastic models ever produced, we are considering extending our Catalog as far as we can in areas such as Airplanes, Cars & Trucks, Militaria, Fantasy and Science-Fiction

Electronics dedicated to the amazing HK Models 1/32 Avro Lancasters
The configuration reproduces one by one the different steps from the crew getting on board till the roaring of the Merlin engines before take off, including the full navigation, landing and cockpit-Cabin lights system.
Thanks to privileged access, the soundtrack has been recorded live in May 2019 at the Lincolnshire Heritage Center, where Lancaster NX611 ‘Just Jane’ is restored, maintained and operated. The circuit board has been programmed accordingly and starts-up the 4 different engines as shown on our real life and scale model videos
The Electronic kit will reproduce in sequence :
1) Crew gets on board : Cabin and gun stations : lights on
2) Dynamos & Batteries on : Dashboard on, cabin lights off
3) Pre-flight check list : Wings and Tail navigation lights on
4) Clearance check : Landing lights on, gun stations off
5) Engine nr 3 starts
6) Engine nr 4 starts
7) Engine nr 2 starts
8) Engine nr 1 starts
Taxiway warming up from low to high RPMs
