SQuiRT – Aileron Wing Kit. 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.
