Entry into the Funktionsmodellbau
We constantly receive requests, how to start properly in its model. At the beginning it should be said, there is still no master fell from the sky and there as so often in life, the proper solution (pity).
Prerequisites
It's always helpful to already have some knowledge in electronics, precision engineering or similar. But these are not absolutely necessary.
Getting Started
At the beginning it is always to start with a kit useful. Here the Tamiya kits are highly recommended, as you can choose from many models, the instructions are self-explanatory and you can modify or upgrade the models later.
Electronics
Many of our customers shy away from the topic of "electronic" because they hardly had points of contact so far with it. Resistors? Soldering? - No, that is not mandatory, many manufacturers such as Tamiya / Carson, Power plant, Servonaut or Veroma the reservations have recognized and provide ready-modules and boards to.
Eigenbau
The replica of the original is the supreme discipline of modeling, this requires a lot of nerve gange, time, experience and financial resources. One has the possibility to rebuild an existing model and only to use the platform or really start at 0. These are the absolute highlights mostly at events. We look often at events or at our store to be able to evaluate these projects. But it is definitely not advisable first to tackle such a project.
