Got my first solo on the sticks. Didn’t even come close to scuffing a wing! Total polar opposite of the SIG conversion which flies great but is awful for ground handling. This thing is almost like being inside it is so smooth and responsive. Have not even tried the flaps yet. She did come in about a pound under the Byron specs of 20 lbs.

Hi,
my compliments for the work done and the first flight. 👏👏👏
I have inherited from a friend the same model to be drastically refurbished. I have see int the pictures that you have the original User Manual, it's could be possible to have a copy of it, as jpg or pdf ?
I'm looking for info of this model, but it's difficult to find it.

thanks in advance
Max.

Thanks for your interest- I’ll see what I can do. My apologies for not checking in recently, but have been involved with settling into my long awaited retirement plans.
It’s refreshing but has been busy outside the hobby and focusing on the house improvements and repairs.

I’ll get it copied into PDF form and get it to you in the next few days.
Thanks again.

I have just purchased a Byron originals Ryan ST -A and need the owners manual. I have everything with the kit except for that I don’t know if you would be willing to share your manual. Please let me know. Thank you.

Not sure if this is the same as what you're after, but I Googled it and came up with these:

These may not work as links. Just Google "owners manual for Ryan ST-A model airplane".
