Superior Quality Models and Service
I ordered a custom-built desktop model of a family member's Piper M350 and couldn't be happier with superior quality model received, as well as the entire Factory Direct Models (FDM) ordering and fulfillment processes. The custom model is a work of art and during the approximate 12 weeks it took to receive it, FDM sent me several order status update messages, approval photos, and delivery was provided by an express carrier. It was well worth the money spent and FDM is OUSTANDING to do business with!

A Perfect scale model of My airplane
Having owned the aircraft for 18 years,
I knew it quite well. The model they made was exactly how it looked when I sold it.
They reproduced the Arizona Department of Transportation decals on the rudder below the elevator. I also had a Pan Am decal at the top of the vertical stabilizer. The original first owner had a US Customs sticker next to the stair door. That was also on the model.
It was foam packed for the 8,000 mile journey from the Philippines, and arrived safely and in perfect condition.

Great customer experience and the plane…
Great customer experience and the plane turned out exactly how we wanted it to! My husband loves his plane and brought back lots of good memories flying float planes!

They took 9 months to do it wrong.
I placed the order for a Lancair with:
-the ACTUAL 3-views from the POH
-the ACTUAL paint design from Scheme Designers
-the EXACT IMRON paint codes
All in the first email. Nobody could do a more complete, thoughtful, and perfect placement of the order. Despite this, presumably because they are just a front for the actual work being done in Malaysia, they took NINE MONTHS to deliver the model, and, after COUNTLESS emails trying to explain the paint colors to them because they had no concept of an IMRON paint code, I had to refuse the first attempt due to them getting the colors all wrong and labelling it as (I'm not making this up) a TBM-850 on the stand. I answered my emails to them promptly, but they still blamed me for taking NINE MONTHS to deliver the model. I run a small business, and I don't farm out my work to the cheapest, slowest bidder, and then blame the customer when my suppliers drop the ball.

Here are the absolute facts:
This review is very suspect. Customer did not communicateof customer communication and submitted two change orders. This account of his order is accurate and documented, just like we do with every order, despite waht he claims. His model was delivered 6 months ago and he leaves this review now? Questionable at best. Here is the truth, whole truth, nothing but the truth. The customer did not supply, and did not know what colors he wanted his model to be painted. He asked us to build the model through trial and error, without proper information, and at our expense. . Finally, after 5 months of repeated phone calls and emails, he sent revised paint chips. Despite him, we still were able build him a beautiful model that he happily approved.
Here is the link to the finished model: http://fdm-model.com/approvals/alreadyApproved/17a2f3637d88b78/3.
We log and keep notes on everything, and there is much more to the story, but I will spare everyone the finer details and choice words he used as they are not relevant. We are pilot owned and operated for over 35 years, creating successful business solutions for the world’s most accomplished aircraft manufacturers and industry professionals. Currently we supply the finest custom-made aircraft models to over 40 different aircraft manufacturers and hundreds of the world’s leading aerospace companies in over 68 countries. We have over 50,000 satisfied clients worldwide. We take pride in every model we build. We have offices and production facilities in both the US and the Philippines, all fully owned, and our factory is owned and operated by a US Navy veteran, former P-3 pilot. We are not a “middleman”, we are the largest supplier of custom model airplanes in the world.
We are also only a phone call away, he could have called us anytime M-F 8am to 4pm MST. We pride ourselves on keeping great notes and providing the highest quality product.
The issue here was the client not knowing what he wanted, not our team.

Ready to ship purchased on 6/6/23
Ready to ship purchased on 6/6/23. Its was shipped 10 days later, received 6/26. This was disappointing. I called FDM with questions and answers were given. The model is well made and nicely detailed.
