In a world dominated by digital creations, it’s the tactile, analog creations that universally captivate us

Static Models

Nothing captures attention more than a large beautifully crafted static model. Just because they’re static doesn’t mean they aren’t powerful and incredibly useful. These types of models are great for:

  • Showcasing at a trade shows and conferences your product's design, aesthetics, and branding by serving as focal point for conversations with potential customers.

  • Company showrooms or grand entrances which leaves a lasting impression on visitors and a sense of pride for employees.

  • Permanent display in high traffic areas adds a touch of sophistication and style to an office lobby, reception area, or executive suite

  • Simplifying Photography for used in social media, website visuals, brochures, and other marketing materials, adding a touch of professionalism and detail.

  • Museum exhibits to showcase scientific concepts, historical artifacts, or architectural designs in a way that is both educational and visually appealing to visitors.

When you need to inspire and demonstrate your brand's commitment to excellence

Prototype Models

Sometimes it can be difficult to visualize and test concepts. This is where having a prototype model built can help. These types of models can help with:

  • Evaluating aesthetics, ergonomics, functionality, and user interaction before investing in full-scale production,

  • Capture real-world feedback from potential users,

  • Giving marketing a tangible tool to grab attention and showcase a product's features and benefits.

  • Super charging sales presentations that can make a product more engaging and memorable

  • Educating in classrooms, museums, skills training, and other settings where tactile learning improves understanding.

Don't just tell a conceptual story, make us experience it, touch it, walk around it, learn something

Engineering Models

Functional, Subscale & Test Platforms

When you need a model that doesn't just look impressive but performs. Whether for subscale flight testing, systems validation, engineering analysis, or functional demonstrations, we engineer to your exact specifications. From aerospace subscale test vehicles to maritime prototypes and heavy equipment demonstrators, our models are built to move, operate, and validate real-world performance across industries.

Simulating complex systems for real-world scenarios and the interactions between components to help Identify potential issues before full-scale production.

  • Subscale flight testing (SFT) and aerodynamic validation for aerospace vehicle development. Testing flight dynamics, control systems, and performance in real-world conditions

  • Simulating complex systems for real-world scenarios and evaluating interactions between components to identify potential issues before full-scale production

  • Technology demonstration and feasibility validation for investors, clients, and engineering review boards, proving concepts work before major capital investment

  • Engineering performance evaluation across industries for testing functionality, fluid dynamics, structural loads, and operational characteristics in controlled environments

  • Teaching technical skills and system operations for students, engineers, and technicians where hands-on demonstration is critical

  • High-end radio controlled (RC) models that go beyond toys. Delivering unparalleled performance and detail for flying fields, waterways, and demonstration events

From Trade Shows and Classrooms to Galleries, Flying Fields, and Grand Spaces, a Beautiful Model Always Captures Attention.

Our Model Services and Capabilities:

RC CAD is in the business of making premium show-stopping, precision-engineered scale models. To create the perfect model for our clients we offer the following services and capabilities.

Precision CAD Modeling

We create CAD models for manufacturing your model. We can start with drawings, mesh models, or existing CAD models to build from.

CNC Laser, CNC Milling & Turning

We use various CNC machines to create the parts needed to construct a beautiful model whether for aesthetic or structural uses.

Paint & Surfacing

The quality of the final look and feel of the model all comes down how it’s surfaces are finished. We use airbrush, spray gun, vinyl to create the perfect look.

3D Printing

We use FDM and SLA resin printers to create many parts. It is a fast and cost effective way of manufacturing complex parts rapidly and repeatably.

Mold Making and Castings

Larger models often require molds be created for castings. This is especially true for parts that require high strength, or when many of one part are needed.

Electronics, Servos, and Hydraulics

Functional models require that extra detail of movement. We can build your model with all the required electronics to bring it to life.

Simply Put,

We engineer, not just build beautiful scale models

Let’s Build Something Great!
