NEW PRODUCT! – Fairey Barracuda Dimer!

With the publication of this plan in the newest NFFS Free Flight Digest, I can offer this one up to all you modelers.  I have been flying my prototype since October.  Most of the flights have been Indoors and it is proving to be a very stable flyer!

This neo-Dimer is an enlargement and simplification of my Peanut kit.  The build is really straightforward.  The wings have been reworked to plug into the sides of the fuselage with all the correct angles to set the proper dihedral.

Pics and video below the links.

The Short Kit includes the plan, 2 sheets of laser-cut balsa, and a vacu-formed canopy
