The Viessmann Story Founder Wieland Viessmann had the right vision. When searching for a market niche where he could start his own business, he chose model train accessories - his own experience as a kid contributed to his decision. But before he founded a company he became a toolmaker. After a couple of years of professional experience and another two years at a Technical College he passed his exam as mechanical engineer. From 1982 to 1987 he worked as designer for production equipment and was in charge of the warehouse and the logistics at Viessmann heating systems. This career was a good foundation for his next steps - and still today he leaves his office from time to time and is slipping back into the role as constructional engineer. 1987 That is when his success story began. A small shed in Reddighausen, a small suburb of Hatzfeld, and a few machines. 1988 Production started with 7 employees. The first HO-models were manufactured -the classic park lantern, curved post top lanterns and curved pole lanterns were introduced. 1989 the production capacity was expanded due to high demand. 1991 the first TT products came onto the market. It was a brave but successful attempt to enter this market since nobody had experience with TT gauge mainly used in the former German federal republic (DDR). 1992 Viessmann employed 27 people. 1993 a modern Viessmann production facility was opened in Hungary - long before the collapse of the Iron Curtain. 2000 a new Viessmann warehouse with over 300 square meters was opened in Hatzfeld while another production hall with over 1,500 square meters was opened in Hungary. 2004 the number of employees has increased to 220 people working at Viessmann Hatzfeld and in Viessmann Hungary. 2005 will see new facilities for seminars in Hatzfeld-Reddighausen. Users and dealers will then have the opportunity to learn everything about Viessmann products e.g. how to install tracks with catenary or how to operate digital systems. 2010 Viessmann buys KIBRI, the Plastic Manufacturer of buildings and moving cranes and vehicles.

The Swiss Manufacturer of Model Train in HO for DC and AC. This Manufacturer only produces models of prototypes seen in Switzerland, including many small private road names. The quality is superb, also their prices, but if you want one of the best and more powerful units on the market, then this is the Brand to pick. The selection is very small, and lately they have focused in the production of series 460 with all kind of advertisement on them. It is a complicated Company numbering their items, so you must have caution when ordering. It seems that these guys, never had a Computer as they use the same number for different units. In the range of 280 (Class 460's) all the items have the same number on the box, but a very small label indicate what's the "name" of the locomotive. Same happens with cars.

Kyosho is a company committed to Leisure. Kyosho’s aim is to improve and expand the quality of life of our customers with the development and creation of high class products to be enjoyed in their leisure time.

The top brand in the RC world today, KYOSHO is credited with producing the first RC car in Japan. Now in its 40th year, now is an appropriate time to chronicle the fascinating untold story of the "DASH 1" creation in this first part of a series on the history of Kyosho.

1971: The Kyosho DASH 1 is presented at an Aircraft Pageant at Harumi International Trade Center sponsored by Mitsuboshi Shoten. From the left: Mr. Hisashi Suzuki (Founding president of Kyosho), Mr. Harukuni Takahashi (Toyota - TMSC), Mr. Tachio Yonemura (Isuzu) and Mr. Yasushi Toshimori (Nissan Omori). Three professional racing drivers were invited to run the DASH 1.
What was the first Japanese RC car ever produced? It is now 40 years since Kyosho started business and it was in 1970 that Kyosho started selling the DASH 1. Lets take a look back in time to see the birth of the DASH 1, generally agreed by the industry to be the first RC car made in Japan.

Radio control (RC) spread through the model market from the about 1960, after the Tokyo Olympics. Still regarded as luxury items, most equipment and attention was focussed on model aircraft. Many people still dreamt if RC could be adapted to an engine powered car, but there were no manufacturers to develop this into reality.

There was one person took the action necessary to bring this dream to life. This was Kyosho's founder, Mr. Hisashi Suzuki (then President of Kyosho). According to Mr. Naohiko Otsuki (President of Automodel) the almost single-handed developer of the DASH 1, it was Mr. H. Suzuki who brought up the idea.

At that time, Mr. H. Suzuki was working in and out of the U.S. Army base in Tachikawa for the import and export of toys. Through the U.S. Army, he was able to acquire the latest engine powered models available. In 1969, conscription and the Vietnam war saw many soldiers in Japan with strong interests in RC models.

Now, as seen in the photograph, the four bare-chassis were sophisticated non-RC midget cars, and could not be considered as originally designed as RC cars. When Mr. H. Suzuki showed these four models to Mr. Otsuki with the proclamation "look what's out there now", it was the very beginning of something special.

When it comes right down to it, Tamiya's main goal is to offer the world the most rewarding modeling experience possible. Grasping the various parts, assembling, and finally painting a finely crafted model is truly a special and rare experience in today's modern world. Tamiya feels that this hands-on experience is invaluable. So whether it's our careful attention to quality, or our commitment to ease-of-assembly, we are always striving to create truly fulfilling ways to spend one's time. Since its start with educational wooden models in 1948, Tamiya has unswervingly striven to be "First in Quality Around the World". This refers not only to quality with respect to products, but also to our dedication to the hobby industry as a whole. From the planning, design, mold construction, molding, and packaging to the various forms of graphic design found on the packaging, assembly manuals, etc., Tamiya's in-house manufacturing process allows for attention to detail indispensable for the pursuit of hobby excellence The phrase "Tamiya Standard" has come to be used among modeling enthusiasts the world over to describe the high level of quality unique to Tamiya. In fact, Tamiya's scale models possess such intricate detail that they are often described by modeling connoisseurs as "museum items". This stalwart commitment to total quality has launched Tamiya to the forefront of the world's hobby industry, and continues to promise an exciting future In Radio Control, Tamiya has produced the highest quality models in Nitro or electric, scales range from 1/8 up to 1/24, including the World best Radio Control war Military Tanks and the incredible line of 1/14 Trucks and trailers as well as 1/8 and 1/10 on road and off road cars and trucks.
 

Traxxas defined Ready-To-Run (RTR) over 20 years ago as a fully assembled version of a high-quality, hobby-class, R/C kit. A Traxxas RTR is assembled by a staff of over 70 experienced, professional assemblers. Specially engineered tools and fixtures, along with exacting quality control ensure that the model is assembled correctly, right down to the exact torque specifications for the hardware. The radio system is tested and fully installed. The body on almost every model comes fully painted and trimmed. On nitro models, the engines are installed and the fuel mixtures are preset to factory break-in settings. Detailed operating instructions, a helpful DVD (in most models), exploded view diagrams, and our friendly customer service are all there to help you with questions, maintenance, and repair. A Traxxas RTR gets you driving quickly so that you're ready to have fun right away. Our customer service keeps you going down the road successfully time-after-time. So, what's left to do? On nitro models, some require gluing the tires to the rims, you'll need to install 12 "AA" alkaline batteries (some models do not require AA batteries due to a built-in RX Power Pack), and apply any additional decals to the body. You will also need a charged 7.2 volt battery pack for the EZ-Start® (some models include a TRX® Power Charger). On electric models, you will need 8 "AA" batteries, a fully charged 7.2 volt battery pack, and decals applied to the body (on some models). Batteries, chargers, and fuel are not included with Traxxas models. They need to be purchased separately from your hobby local shop.

A Horizon Company:
Founded in 1985 as a way to fill a significant need in the North American RC marketplace, Horizon Hobby continues to grow and creatively adapt to changes in the industry nearly a quarter of a century later. Realizing a need for proprietary product and the creation of its own brands, the company purchased Hobby Dynamics in 1992, gaining the exclusive rights to several leading RC product lines. This expansion was followed in 1998 by the acquisition of Indy RC, a mail-order company that was converted into the Horizon Hobby Catalog Division. This allowed Horizon to place a strategic focus on marketing directly to the consumer. We made our first investment in the European market in 2004 with the acquisition of England's Helger Racing (now Horizon Hobby UK Ltd.), followed by the addition of Horizon Hobby Deutschland in 2008. Horizon became a 100% employee-owned company in 2006 with the introduction of an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP).
 

Blade helps pilots achieve success and graduate to new levels of heli fun. Level 1 starts newcomers out with ultra-micro and micro coaxial helis, like the mCX, mCX2, CX2 or CX3. The dual, counter-rotating blades found on coaxials provide great stability for beginners. Level 2 features self-stabilizing single-rotor helis, like the mSR. These helis still offer positive stability, yet feature increased agility and speed through their unique rotor head design. Finally, heli enthusiasts can tackle advanced heli maneuvers with the CCPM machines of Level 3. These helis range from tuned-down single rotors for first-time CCPM pilots (like the SR) to all-out 3D machines like the CP Pro 2 and Blade 400. Visit bladehelis.com to check out everything you need to progress through the different levels of heli excitement, including accessories.

HobbyZone is a brand of electric-powered radio controlled aircraft, car and boat models distributed by Horizon Hobby of Champaign, Illinois. Originally a line consisting solely of R/C aircraft, the brand name is a reference to one of three skill levels necessary to fly the various models. All HobbyZone aircraft are sold as a fully assembled, ready-to-fly package which includes all necessary accessories and batteries. Except for the scale model Super Cub, the aircraft are patterned around the same basic design which is that of a high wing, experimental-style "pod and boom" blow-molded plastic fuselage with a direct-drive pusher propeller and v-tail.
Some HobbyZone produces include the patented Anti-Crash Technology which utilizes special optical sensors that detect both sky and ground. Should the plane enter a dive, the system automatically applies counter-control to reduce the likelihood of a crash. It also detects and avoids overcompensation of the controls, one of the leading causes of crashes by inexperienced pilots. As skills develop, the ACT is easily disabled by pulling the throttle stick downward and holding it for three seconds. The plane beeps twice to signify the ACT is turned off. Rearming the ACT is accomplished in the same manner and will cause the plane to beep once. Arming and disarming the ACT can be done in flight if desired.
 

ParkZone is a brand of intermediate-level, radio controlled electric model aircrafts produced and distributed by American hobby manufacturer Horizon Hobby of Champaign, Illinois, USA.

The finest plastic model Manufacturer in Italy, part of the Faller conglomerate, manufactures many plastic kits of Airplanes, Ships, Tanks and special kits such as the Leonardo Da Vinci collection. Italeri was founded in the early 60's with that enthusiasm which only youth’s unbridled passion creates. For Italeri’s two founders had loved airplanes and military vehicles from boyhood. But they were not satisfied with the models available at the time; they wanted something more, something better. Since what they wanted was nowhere to be found, they decided to produce it themselves. Painstakingly accurate research became their pastime; and that research provided the motivating force for producing models that modelers want, models with absolutely no imperfections. The company thus asserted itself—always increasing its range of products, always growing. And thanks to the imagination and talent of the founders and their colleagues, Italeri became a leader in modeling and in time established a place for itself on the international market. Historical Research Accurate research lies behind the design and production of each of our models. Before designing a model, Italeri puts painstaking effort into researching the details of its historical subject. Attention to every little detail—from information about a vehicle’s historical use to its paint schemes in various theatres of operation, from uniform colors and insignia to equipment and stowage—allows our customers to create models that accurately portray their subjects with the highest possible degree of historical realism. We want to transform a fun hobby into a cultural statement. A Large Catalog A large catalog with lots of models from which to choose allows you to make your collection unique. This is important for a company committed to promoting modeling all over the world. Our product range comprises many, many models; and because we’re always adding new products to it, our range constantly attracts new modelers to this limitless hobby. From 1/72 scale airplanes to large 1/35 scale ships—all tremendously accurate—the Italeri range puts no limits on your creativity. Our love for this hobby inspires us and provides a continuous stream of ideas to interest modelers.
