Your advantages when shipping model airplanes with Paket International
Whether it's an RC airplane, a glider model, a model kit or a high-quality collector's item – with our professional shipping solutions you can transport sensitive model aircraft safely, reliably and worldwide to over 220 countries.
Maximum protection for sensitive model aircraft
Model airplanes are often made of delicate materials such as balsa, EPP, Depron, fiberglass, or carbon fiber. With the right shipping method and secure packaging, wings, fuselages, tail assemblies, and other components are optimally protected from impacts, pressure, and damage during transport.
Worldwide shipping for model making and RC airplanes
Ship model airplanes, model kits, spare parts, and accessories within Germany or to over 220 countries worldwide. Whether for private sales, online shops, or commercial shipping – Paket International offers the right shipping solution for national and international shipments.
Compare shipping costs and ship professionally
Compare offers from leading shipping providers like DHL, UPS, and FedEx in seconds. Benefit from transparent shipping costs, shipment tracking, support with international shipping and customs documents, and personalized advice for particularly fragile or bulky model aircraft.
Professional shipping for model airplanes, RC airplanes and model building accessories
Model aircraft are among the most fragile items shipped via parcel service. Whether remote-controlled RC airplanes, gliders, scale models, aerobatic models, or model airplane kits – many components are made of lightweight materials such as balsa, EPP, Depron, carbon fiber, or fiberglass and are sensitive to pressure, impacts, or improper handling. Careful packaging and the right shipping solution are crucial to ensure your model aircraft arrives safely and undamaged.
Model manufacturers, retailers, online shops, model aircraft clubs, and private collectors all ship model aircraft and accessories daily within Germany and to numerous countries worldwide. In addition to complete model aircraft, wings, fuselages, tail assemblies, landing gear, propellers, electric motors, remote controls, and spare parts are also regularly shipped. Depending on the size and design, the requirements for packaging, shipping method, and transport vary considerably.
Smaller model airplanes, model kits, or spare parts can often be shipped cost-effectively via parcel service. However, larger RC airplanes or models with a large wingspan often exceed standard dimensions and require oversized, palletized, or special shipping. The decisive factors are the external dimensions of the packaging, the total weight, the value of the goods, and the destination country.
Secure packaging is particularly important. Wings, tail surfaces, and other delicate components should be protected separately and secured against movement within the box. Shock-absorbing cushioning materials, sturdy shipping boxes, and careful securing significantly reduce the risk of damage during transport. For high-value model aircraft or rare collector's items, transport insurance and real-time shipment tracking are also recommended.
When shipping model aircraft internationally, customs regulations and export rules also play an important role. Depending on the destination country, shipping and customs documents are required for deliveries outside the European Union. A complete product description and correctly prepared export documents ensure that your shipment can be processed quickly and without unnecessary delays.
Model aircraft with lithium or LiPo batteries require special attention. Depending on battery capacity, installation method, and transport route, these may be subject to international dangerous goods regulations. Paket International assists you in selecting the appropriate shipping solution and informs you about the requirements for the safe shipment of your RC models.
With Paket International, you can securely ship model airplanes, model kits, and accessories to over 220 countries worldwide. Compare shipping costs from leading providers like DHL, UPS, and FedEx, choose the shipping method that suits you best, and benefit from professional shipping processing including tracking and support with international shipping and customs documents.

Shipping methods for shipping model airplanes and RC models
Not every model airplane can be shipped the same way. Size, wingspan, weight, material, and destination country determine which shipping method is the safest and most economical solution. While smaller model airplanes, model kits, or spare parts can often be transported easily via parcel service, large RC airplanes or delicate collector's models often require oversized freight, pallet, or special shipping.
With Paket International, you can compare shipping costs from leading providers like DHL, UPS, and FedEx and find the optimal shipping solution for your model building products.

Whether you sell a single model, regularly ship customer orders, or supply international retailers, our shipping process supports you from calculating shipping costs to successful delivery. Benefit from professional shipping handling for both national and international model shipments.
01 – Record model aircraft and shipping data
First, gather all relevant shipping information such as weight, dimensions, value of goods, and destination country. For RC models, please also specify whether lithium or LiPo batteries are installed, included, or packaged separately. The more accurate the information, the more precisely shipping costs can be calculated and the most suitable shipping solution selected.
02 – Compare shipping costs and select shipping method
Using Paket International's shipping cost calculator, you can compare offers from leading shipping providers like DHL, UPS, and FedEx in just a few seconds.
