AK-Models? Anyone know about them?

They advertise semi-scale warbird arfs in Model Aviation but the price seems too cheap. Thier ad shows an F4U Corsair 58 inch wing span for $129.95. Has anyone out there ever bought one of their ARFS? Your comments are greatly appreciated.


They have become a distributor of China Model Production (CMP) ARFs. The price is fantastic and the models are very good. I bought a "1.40-size" P-40 from AK Models recently and am very pleased. Same goes for the SU-26 Sukhoi laser-cut kit I bought there a few years ago. Alex's customer service is solid, and he's actively looking for ways to improve the CMP line through participation in web forums.

AK-Models is a reputable company that distributes/resells CMPro ARFs as well as some of their own kits.

They make a kit called the Simple Flyer that is modelled after a design from the Real Flight flight simulator. The model is still in the newest version of G3, and the notes under that particular aircraft mention that AK-Models makes a kit based on the original flight sim model.

I haven't had a chance to do business with AK-Models yet, but the company has a good reputation and I hope I get to use them in the future.

Ditto. I love the Christen Eagle 1.20 I bought from them.
