Hobby Planet

The proprietor was extremely helpful and loved to talk shop with his customers. You can tell he enjoys his work. He is knowledgeable and very helpful.

Love coming here for Gunpla paints (model master), direct order from locals warehouses and still pay fair price vice amazon. Let's me not forget this is an RC hobby shop so there's lot of option to choose from plus the experience is tooped with the owners personal advice and experience. Great customer service.

Staying out here for vacation and wanted to find something to have fun with on the beach while also being able to take home and upgrade in the future. As soon as I walked in I was helped and when I told them what I was looking for they hooked me up with a volcano epx pro a battery and charger. They made sure to explain everything I needed to run the truck and the charger for the battery. Very helpful staff and very friendly I will be going back when I stay again

The owner saved my day!
I was out at exotics on Broadway with my RC drift car and I broke a wheel off making my car inoperable. I called the shop and asked to come by to see if they had a part for me. He got me situated and I was back at the show with my rc drift car. Super friendly and caring for the community. I highly recommend this shop to any remote controlled enthusiast! They have planes, off road cars, rally cars and more, Awsome RCs and awsome people 💯

Best hobby shop on the West Coast privately owned, personable attention expert service you couldn’t ask for anything more

Stopped in from out of the area …. Great store, very knowledgeable about aspects of the rc hobbie, purchased a few things and will be calling for my rc needs!

I get all my RC crawlers and Tamiya paints here

Great Hobby Shop! Owner Manny is super Knowledgeable, patient and helpful. Never pushy, Always Steers you in the Right Direction! He was happy to demo his Arrma Felony, now we own a couple Felonies and an Infraction ourselves. Highly recommended, support and shop local!!

Went in on an offset of looking for gears for a school project. Totally understood what I was trying to accomplish and was more than accommodating. Had a customer looking for a kit and was awesome at multitasking...very professional. I'll be looking to purchase a nitro buggy soon!

The owner is a super cool dude. Great to talk with about anything RC. Often working on his own turbine planes when I stop by, but is happy to take 5 and help me out. One day he was pulling away in his car when I was just arriving but he reversed and got me some parts I needed. Honestly wouldn't have known it was him!

Good place to do business at. Support local!

Great local hobby shop. Very knowledgeable. Hope he continues to stock more and more mini quad stuff!

Great customer service, friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this shop if you’re in Monterey

The best shop I've been in in a long time. I have owned RC cars sense I was 12 and I have been in a lot of shops. This is a very personal shop, the owner is great to talk to and have a love for the hobby his self. I crashed my E Revo and broke the frame in half. I came in to get a new frame but he had to order it. A few days later i had the frame, new Lipo batteries and some other parts I needed to repair my Revo. He would have repaired it for me but I am very handy myself and wanted to do it myself. I go by often just to look at his selection and I can just call him to get advise if my car is acting up. Great guy and great shop, I will continue to go there and recommend anyone in the hobby to stop by even if its just to look around.

This place is awesome! I wasn't sure what was wrong with my rc car, so I took my car in and the guy had my car running within 2 minutes after months of me not being able to figure it out. Highly recommend very friendly and knowledgeable staff.😊

Friendly owner. Very helpful. Was able to pick up some sand paddle tires for my Arrma while coming through Monterey on a road trip. I always try to support small, local businesses and it's nice to come across a rc shop still doing it!

I'm from out of town and dtopped by to pick up some paint and brushes for a model I am building with my son. The gentleman at the register, I believe is the owner, was very friendly and helpful. He took the time to help me look for the colors I was in need of and was very knowledgeable. If I lived locally this is the place I would go. The only improvement I could recommend is to carry model airplanes. They seem to specialize in RC cars and planes. Thank yiu for a wonderful expierence.

Pretty amazing little spot. Great service, very helpful , friendly & knowledgeable . Clean & well stocked. Great prices. I would recommend for All RC needs!

Started going after a while and went by because I was missing some parts and he seemed glad to help me out always answers my calls and gives me decent deals on parts I recommend most people to come here!!

Excellent selection, Very helpful service.
They had exactly what I wanted in stock and at a great price! Such a fun place to go and visit!

A cool little store with a very knowledgeable staff, especially Manny. He knows just about everything you need to know to be successful with running RC vehicles.
