Ace Radio Control has been around since at least the 1950s, as evidenced by this advertisement on page 51 of the May 1957 American Modeler magazine.

I owned an Ace Pulse Commander single-channel unit for a while, and documented the electronics prior to selling it. Photos and the complete operator's manual can be found at the link above.

Ace R/C manufactured radio control systems and a few airplane models up through about the 1990s, when it was bought by Thunder Tiger, of Taiwan.
