You can always improvise and think of your own methods as well.
Since the RATs from the web have only a limited functionality and you can't customize it, I would recommend to create your own instead. Learn C++, WinAPI, look at how crypters work and other methods to bypass AVs, or even make your own?. Also think of what your RAT need to do (Inject other files?, Harvest passwords?, etc). Then, implement it based on your needs. I know it's more complicated than downloading some program made by others, but this way is more reliable, it matches your target, you can also add new functionality, you can make it more stealthy and a lot of other.

Is there any good tutorials on making them ?

Well i can't tell, but you can look at other RAT source code. What I would suggest is to learn some basic malware functionality (DLL injection, Keylogging, etc), basic bypassing methods (encoding, crypters, etc), basic backdooring methods, and build your way up from there. You can get inspired from other malware that is found in the wild. It's just coding after all.
After you get experienced, think of new ways to do such things so it will be more stealthy. The idea is to cloak your RAT as an innocent program.

Some basic resources found just googleing around:
What is DLL injection?
DLL injection basics
https://github.com/quasar/QuasarRAT
Malware for fun and profit

Maybe these are not some of the best resources out there, but you can google it by yourself.
