The 54 inch Tyro150 was designed in 3D CAD to be an outstanding tricycle gear electric trainer.
Its large 54” wingspan makes it easy to see, the light wing loading lets it fly slowly, and tricycle landing gear helps make landings easier, while still being a lot of fun for the experienced pilot.
All laser cut balsa and plywood make it super easy and fast to assemble.
