Kit Cutters is your premier source for large-scale and giant-scale RC short kits. We’re here to provide balsa builders with accurately cut, carefully prepared short kits — the parts that make a build start off right. We offer a constantly growing catalog of aircraft kits across many categories, including Warbirds, Commercial, Gliders, and Civilian aircraft. If you’re looking for a kit we are not cutting or a part we do not currently offer, please explore our “Resources” or “FAQ” pages. If you can’t find your answer there, use our “Contact Us” Page to let us know what you need—we will do our best to help.
A short kit provides all the complex, precision-cut balsa and plywood parts needed to build your model—such as wing ribs, fuselage formers, and specialty structural pieces. Unlike a full kit, it leaves the selection of standard stick and sheet wood, hardware, and accessories up to you. This gives you total control over the materials, weight, and final finish of your build, making it the preferred choice for serious modelers.
Our state-of-the-art, kerf-compensated laser cutting technology ensures that every interlocking joint fits with absolute precision. Laser cutting eliminates the crushing and splintering often caused by traditional die-cutting or hand-cutting. The result is a stronger, lighter, and straighter airframe that assembles significantly faster and flies better.
We use only hand-selected, premium-grade balsa wood and aircraft-grade plywood for every part we cut. Every Kit Cutters short kit is manufactured right here in the USA by builders, for builders. We promise that our parts will match the original designer's plans precisely, giving you a frustration-free and highly accurate building experience. All of our products are backed by a 30-day return policy.
