Beginners Trainer Model Aircraft
They offer a small selection of rc model trainer aircrafts to suit beginners. They look rugged and robust enough to withstand beginner wear and tear, the usual dings and dents etc. As they are of simple design repairs could be made easily. The IC trainers are for a maximum size of 0.40 engines which is the typical trainer size, anything bigger and a beginner would struggle. There are also electric trainer aircraft which often is the best place to start as electric motors don't suffer from bad starting and mixture problems! You can get off the ground real quickly!

Ripmax also stock a good selection of free flight gliders if that's where your rc model heart lies. Some people simply love gliding.
The Ripmax selection of Scale Model Aircraft is second to none I would say. Flying Scale model aircraft is my thing I can say without doubt that the Ripmax selection is really good. Biplanes, WWII fighters including a lovely Top Flite Supermarine Spitfire (my scale favourite), Aerobatic (including a Pitts Special, my aerobatic favourite) and even a couple of twin engined aircraft are available. There is also a huge Ripmax ARTF (almost ready to fly) Hercules 4 engined model for the adventurous, you may have your work cut out for you to bring it in under the 7kg max dry weight BMFA rules though.
