Brushless Motor Upgrades: While not necessary for proper flight performance, we understand that there many will

choose to upgrade the SQuiRT to a brushless power system. The Align 430L 2250KV series motor will fit without

modification to the EMM-400A Motor Mount and is an excellent performer on 7.4V batteries. Additionally a GWS

gearbox may be fitted to the airframe using the supplied motor stick assembly opening up many good options. With

many of the lighter brushless motors it may become necessary to relocate your servos forward into the servo tray

within the radio box area of the fuselage.

Items You May Need:

1. Thin, Medium, and Thick CA (super glue) or White Glue

2. Plan/Table Protector (use the bag that this kit came in to protect your work surface from CA glue spills)

3. Razor Blade(s)

4. Med-Fine Grit Sand Paper and sanding block

5. Clear Tape

6. Balsa Wood Filler

7. .047” and .093” drills.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:

Thank you, for purchasing this Stevens Aeromodel SQuiRT – A speed 400 primary trainer. This kit provides the builder

and pilot a refreshing change of pace from heavy “ARF” style plywood box airframe construction and blends stick and

tissue design methods of the past with state of the art CAD technology and precision interlocking laser cut parts; the result

is something you will find truly exceptional to build and fly. This kit is intended for a beginner-novice builder and beginner

pilot as a primary 3-channel trainer.

Best Regards,

Assembly Tips

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS and the plan sheet prior to starting any work!

Tape plans to work table. Cover with wax paper or plastic wrap.

Join all joints with Thin CA unless otherwise specified.

DO NOT REMOVE THE PARTS FROM THE BALSA SHEETS UNTIL REQUIRED!

DO NOT FORCE THE FIT – when in doubt double check your parts - removal of material should not be

required. If you feel that you have a poor connection check first to see that the part is not upside down.

Reference each piece against the plan sheet.

Making solid glue joints: Hold parts together on top of plan sheet using moderate pressure to fit parts - wick thin

CA into joint. (There is no need to pin parts to work table as all pieces interlock and self - jig.)

Fuselage Assembly

Lets begin construction by assembling the fuselage core. Locate the following 1/8” Lite Plywood parts marked

F2, F3a, and F3b. Locate the 3/32” balsa part F4. Dry fit (no glue) the assembly together as indicated in the

photo below. Please note that F1 and F2 have forward designations these parts are etched with the word

“FRONT” do make certain to assemble these parts with “FRONT” facing the nose of the model. Tip! If a part

does not fit properly check the forward orientation.

Locate the 1/8” Lite Plywood part F1 and dry fit to the core as indicated in the photo below. Make certain that

the entire assembly fits together without any gaps check for square then glue parts together by wicking thin CA

glue into adjoining surfaces.

Invert the core assembly and add the 1/16” plywood motor mount doublers to the inside of the core assembly as

pictured below.

Next, install the 1/8” Lite Plywood Parts L1 and L2 to the underside of the core as indicated in the following

photo.

Locate the 3/32” balsa fuselage sides and the 3/32” balsa former F5. Dry fit former F5 to the rear of the core

assembly and the fuselage sides as indicated in the photo below. Once satisfied with the fit, glue the fuselage

side to the core assembly. Repeat for the opposite side. Tip! you must fit F5 to the core prior to joining the

fuselage sides.

Now install the F7 cabin cross grain doublers they can be found on the 3/32” balsa sheet. These parts key

inside the fuselage as indicated in the photo below.

Locate the 1/16” balsa part F8 and install to the front of the cabin spanning the fuselage sides and F7 as

indicated in the photo below. Tip! F7 is recessed to receive F8 align the top of F8 with the upper recess in F7.

Now locate the 1/16” balsa part F9 and the 3/32” balsa part F6. Dry fit F9 to the top of the fuselage, next fit the

former F6 to the fuselage and part F9. Invert the fuselage on your work surface, square, and retain parts with

thin CA glue.

Locate the 1/16” Plywood servo tray and glue inside the fuselage as indicated in the photos below.

Next, fit the 3/32” balsa part F10 to the aft end of the fuselage as indicated in the photo below.

Invert the fuselage and fit the lower 1/16” balsa decking part F11 as indicated in the photo below.

Locate the 3/32” balsa parts F12 and key within the underside of the fuselage as indicated in the photo below.

F12 doubles the fuselage battery access hatch and is shaped along it’s leading edge to fit snug against the

inside plywood structure. Tip! Make certain that F12 rests upon the F11 decking installed in the step prior.

Assemble the battery access hatch catch/cross brace from 1/16” balsa parts C1, C2, and C3 as indicated in the

photos below. With the catch/brace assembled install one 3/16” rare earth magnet in the circular cutout –

secure the magnet with thin CA glue.

Install the completed cross brace to the fuselage as indicated in the photo below. The leading edge of the

catch/brace should be flush with the leading edge of the deck part F11. Tip! Sand lightly if the fit is too snug (a

result of the C1,2,3 parts not being aligned properly when gluing) – don’t force the parts to fit.

Assemble the battery hatch from the 1/16” balsa parts H1 and H2. Note that H1 is etched with the outside

shape of H2 to aide in aligning the parts. With H1 and H2 assembled as indicated in the first photo move on to

installing the magnetic catch magnet and forward catch(1/16” balsa part H3). Tip! make certain you install your

magnet in the hole that matches the magnet installed within the fuselage assembly.

Now locate the F13 and F14 balsa sheeting and sheet the nose of the aircraft starting from the leading edge of

L2 following the recess between created by the inner plywood core and the fuselage sides as indicated in the

photos below.

You’ll notice that the upper deck slightly overhangs the front of the windshield. Using a medium grit sand paper

and your sanding block sand off the overhang as indicated in the photos below.
