Nexa Balsa ARF RC Airplanes

Nexa Balsa ARF RC Airplanes
As the foundation of RC Flight for nearly 100 years, Balsa Model Aircraft continue to typify the model building hobby’s original state. For decades, modelers of all ages have experienced the joys of flying RC aircraft they built from KITs and ARF (Almost Ready To Fly) models made primarily from balsa wood.
NEXA is Motion RC’s in-house brand of balsa RC model aircraft that marries three key elements of scale, support, and value. Comprising both revitalized classics and all-new future fan-favorites, the NEXA portfolio delivers a wide variety of balsa wood airplanes with different sizes, styles, and price points. Most importantly, Nexa aircraft are backed by Motion RC’s world-renowned customer support, spare parts, and technical expertise... Popular Remote Control (RC) airplanes from Nexa include the P-47 Thunderbolt, Junkers JU-87 transport, Grumman F8F Bearcat, P-38 Lightning twin-engine fighter, B-24 Liberator bomber, the famed P-51 Mustang and Spitfire warbirds, and dozens more!
Powered by brushless electric motors or liquid fuel engines including nitro fuel and gasoline, Nexa balsa models can be outfitted with the pilot’s choice of electronics from top brands including Admiral Power. In addition, Benchcraft’s line of premium adhesives and diverse building materials ensure your Nexa airplane is built well and built right.
Balsa wood, known for its strength and versatility, can be shaped into feather-light indoor free-flight models, blisteringly fast electric or turbine-powered jets, and giant warbirds. Nexa balsa aircraft include these examples and much more, including civilian General Aviation aircraft, Skydiving aircraft, Military transports, Scale Warbirds, and slope soaring Gliders, with many new airplanes to come.
All of Motion RC’s Nexa aircraft KITs and ARF models are supported by Motion RC’s world-renowned customer support. Build and fly with confidence, backed by original replacement spare parts and team-tested performance upgrades for your favorite airplane from NEXA and Motion RC. Achieve your next level of flight with NEXA!
