My Favourite RC Hobby Shops

With all the RC hobby shops out there, how do you know which is a good one to deal with and purchase from? Simple answer - the shops that are honest, upfront, non intimidating, and treat each customer as a valued individual, not just a sales number. Product knowledge, good pricing, and shipping are almost as important.

I know this is just simple good business sense, but so hard to find nowadays. Getting good honest service and help, especially with the complexities associated with RC helicopters is crucial to your success and overall enjoyment with this hobby.

Wayne’s R/C Hobbies

Wayne’s R/C is a Canadian RC hobby shop that I consider to have the best one on one service and help in Canada; they are my personal favorite Canadian RC hobby shop to deal with. Wayne’s R/C Hobbies is owned and operated by Wayne Gorham and his wife Marilyn. They are located in the small town of Fairview, Alberta, Canada.

Wayne is by far the most helpful and knowledgeable person I have ever talked to when it comes to RC helicopters. Wayne’s RC is without doubt, Canada’s leading Miniature Aircraft resource (obviously how I found them), but carry many more quality brands such as the full line of Align T-Rex helicopters and many other quality aircraft, OS engines, Futaba radios, just to scratch the surface. Wayne is an accomplished 3D heli pilot himself and knows this hobby inside out - what works and what doesn't.

Wayne’s R/C Hobbies doesn’t have a web site. They are one of those great little secrets that few people know about, but once found, become your number one go to source for RC. Wayne and Marilyn pride themselves on making true customers for life. They will go out of their way to help people succeed in RC with the one on one care that is basically impossible to find these days.

Like me, Wayne and Marilyn want you to succeed with this hobby. Wayne’s R/C will ship anywhere, but deal mostly with Canadian orders. I was so happy when I first discovered Wayne’s R/C Hobbies... I feel very privileged being able to introduce this “little secret” to the rest of the Canadian RC community if you haven’t already been wowed by their service, helpful advice, and top of the line products.

RC Helicopter Help E-Books

I have written three e-books to help people succeed in this hobby.

Setup & Tips For 400 Size RC Helicopters RC Helicopter Setup & Tips E-Book

The main focus of this book is to give tips & advice on 400 size electric RC helicopters and how to turn them into the perfect trainer. The settings and tips actually work on many sizes of RC helis - physics and proceedures are pretty much the same for any good single rotor hobby grade machine regardless or size, power plant, or manufacturer.

How To Build RC Helicopter Training Gear
How To Build RC Helicopter Training Gear E-Book

120/140 Swashplate Setup & Levelling


120&140 CCPM electronic swashplate setup is by far the most intimidating and miss-understood technical setup process that most people face in this hobby. There are just so many things to set correctly.

I had a hard time myself figuring this out and after being disappointed with the lack of good information and an easy to follow process, I decided to write this e-book.
