My advise is get the best tools you can afford.
I work on real cars too so it is natural for me to buy expensive tools (Snap-on, Facom, SK, Matco, Xcelite, ChannelLock, Beta, Wera, Wiha, just to name a few).
For my RC I bought a small metal tool box and about $500 of tools including a lower torque Panasonic driver and all Wera hand tools with several driver bits, dedicated Xcelites in smaller sizes, Olfa cutters, Tamiya's high end tools, etc.
Don't go cheap because you will end up buying replacements. Not only that, chances are you will round off screw heads at the worst of times. GL!
