Quido 

is a small model that accompanies you wherever you go. The prefabricated parts are mostly balsa and just need to be assembled according to 

the step-by-step building instructions.

With the exception of the tail end of the fuselage, which is a carbon tube, and spruce spars Quido is a pure balsa model. The result is a light-weight yet 
strong model. A 2S-LiPo and an outrunner with 100 to 150 Watts are recommended to power the Quido. In addtion you´ll need basic 3-channel radio 
equipment with two micro servos and a speed controller.

Construction should be according to the step-by-step instructions provided in this manual. All parts can be identified by means of the parts list at the end of 
the manual. Always check that parts fit perfectly. Correct, if necessary, before you glue. Give glue sufficient time to dry before you continue with the next 
step.

We recommend white glue (if not otherwise noted) for gluing, which offers good strength and low weight. White glue retains a certain degree of elasticity 
even after the glue has cured and will stand up to any loads which occur during flying.

Tip

The wing spar is a lamination of three spruce spars. 
Mark the centre on all three spars and glue spars 
together as shown. Secure spars with tape or clamps 
until glue has dried completely. Remove any residual 
glue and carefully sand surface of spar.

1

Sort ribs according to cross-section of spar and slide 
ribs on spar. Do not glue!

Attention:

 Make sure to place the two centre ribs 

29 in the correct position as they will be sheeted 
later on!
