Founded in 1985 as a way to fill a significant need in the North American RC marketplace, Horizon Hobby continues to grow and creatively adapt to changes in the industry nearly a quarter of a century later.

Realizing a need for proprietary product and the creation of its own brands, the company purchased Hobby Dynamics in 1992, gaining the exclusive rights to several leading RC product lines. This expansion was followed in 1998 by the acquisition of Indy RC, a mail-order company that was converted into the Horizon Hobby Catalog Division. This allowed Horizon to place a strategic focus on marketing directly to the consumer.

We made our first investment in the European market in 2004 with the acquisition of England's Helger Racing (now Horizon Hobby UK Ltd.), followed by the addition of Horizon Hobby Deutschland in 2008. Horizon became a 100% employee-owned company in 2006 with the introduction of an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP).
