Welcome to our new store what you need to know

RC Repairs, Upgrades and Servicing

At Make It Build It we have a vast technical knowledge for all things radio controlled, with over 30 years experience shared by our workshop team we can be sure to get you back up and running with your radio controlled vehicle.

Bashed a little to hard? Maybe your RC just needs a freshen up to get rid of those rattles and get back on track? Worse still, maybe the electrical gremlins are on the rampage and you just can't quite figure it out. Whatever the issue, get in touch and we'll see what we can do.

We cover everything from minor repairs through to full strip down overhauls and powerplant installations. If your rc vehicle is damaged or just not running right then it's better to get it sorted straight away rather than leave it to get worse and ultimately more expensive. Our workshop team have a wide range of experience and they're not just staff, they're enthusiasts too running everything from box stock RTRs over to experimental 'projects'. We'll be on hand throughout to help and keep you updated.

Submit your enquiry using the button at the bottom and we'll be in touch to arrange either shipping it in or getting you to drop it off in store. Having a dedicated workshop team means we can offer a great turnaround time and get you back up and running as soon as possible subject to parts availability.
