My understanding is that FedEx will not honor an insurance claim if the item damaged during transit is a "model airplane". I found that out when I initiated a claim with FedEx when a molded R/C sailplane was received damaged from a vendor. Fortunately my credit card company sided with me and I got a chargeback until the vendor made good on the damage.

Costs a little more, but quite possibly ends up being cheaper in the long run, and it's insured against goons. Er, rather that's insured BY goons, but it's still insured :-) NW RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
