Description
A popular High Wing Peanut – the Bede BD-4. The Bede website indicates the BD-4 was likely “the first real kitplane in the world”. It has long been a popular modeling subject due to its simplicity – virtually all the lines on this plane are straight. At 32.5 square inches of wing area, it has a pretty good size for a Peanut.
The short kit contains a new plan and two sheets of light weight 1/16″ sheet balsa – and a 3D printed tailwheel.
Here’s a video of the new model flying indoors!
