Built, flown and
crashed by real people.
We are a family that builds, flies and fixes RC. Throttle Up Hobby is the shop we always wanted: the gear we trust, honest advice, and build videos from our own bench and flying field.

We fly this stuff too.
Our son Case rebuilt a hand-me-down trainer himself (new ESC, receiver, landing gear and elevator repairs) and took it up for its maiden flight. That is what this shop is about: getting more people building, flying and having fun.
