Assembly Instructions
Because we love this hobby. Because we focus on being something more than just another scale model shop. Because everyday we rack our brains to improve and give more and better services to our customers, this is, to you... ;) For all these reasons and a few more, we have just started a new section in our website: Assembly instructions.

This means that, starting now, we are putting tons of building instructions manuals in PDF format at your disposal, so you can browse them online, download or even print them ;D

Because life and scale modeling are already hard enough, here at Aeronautiko we just want to make it easy for you ;)
