Trusted by hobbyists worldside since 1966

Back in 1966, when our founder Johnny Yong imported the first Futaba radio system and opened a small shop called Singapore Hobby Supplies, he never imagined how his dream would take flight. He was just excited to build his first single-channel radio, to later fly his first single-channel model with an AM-15 diesel engine, and to help fellow modelers succeed in the hobby by using the right products. But six years later, Singapore Hobby Supplies Pte Ltd was formally incorporated, and today it has grown to become the trusted resource for genuine, tested products that support hobbyists and modelers around the globe.

“Most professional and friendly staff. Helpful with customs for customers from EU. Good range of electronics available, which are either unobtainable or very expensive in Europe. Customer service is excellent too, also when dealing with warranty issues, as I have experienced first had when a newly-bought Futaba servo gave up. Normally, I do not do reviews, but am more then happy to make a exception and a 5-star recommendation in this case!”

“ I just wanted to let you know I just received the Display today (July 26/16) for my Futaba TCAP9. I installed it and it works very well. Thank you very much for allowing me to “revive” my transmitter which has always worked well until I dropped it and broke the display. I just have to stick on the face cover to complete the installation.”
