Ryan Aircraft
Ryan Aircraft is dedicated to the goal of providing the finest laser-cut kits of WWII warbirds for electric power. All kits in our present line fly quite well with stock Speed 400 ferrite motors, but performance can be further improved by installing lightweight brushless motors like the AstroFlight brushless 020 or Mega 16/15/6. All kits are primarily balsa and ply built-up construction and most use sheeted foam wings. The internal crutch construction makes it easy to quickly construct a straight, light and durable airframe.
![]() Hellcat Speed 400 Our original kit is a laser-cut balsa and foam model of the classic US Navy fighter. Accurate scale outline and surprising performance.
