guillows models can be made rc, but they're not really designed to be... they are designed for rubber band powered free flight, and not made to carry weights such as a battery etc..

shin, instead of Guillows model, convert free flight foam planes in to rc u just need some micro electronics those all available in hobbyking. you can buy free flight foam models from Rcdhamaka eg. Multiplex fox Glider or hobbyking Vtail free flight EPO glider. :-)

Shin, there are a large number of Guillows models that lend themselves easily to RC, notably the larger ones. But be warned, they are difficult to make flyworthy, and need specialised electronics. You need very very good building skills
