As seen in the FAC News #343, the FAC One Design for 2026 is the Wright WP-1 in Dime Scale! This is a neo-Dimer, designed and tested over this winter and spring. If you are attending the September FAC Outdoor Champs in Muncie this year, you WILL receive this short kit as part of your registration package.
But maybe you want to get a jump on it and build this parasol dimer before then. Here’s your opportunity – usually, the One Design is not released before the Outdoor Champs, but we had to get the neo-Dimer published per FAC Rules and decided that the short kit should be made available now.
The WP-1 was a Dornier Falke purchased and evaluated by the US Navy in 1922 or -23. The Navy deemed it to be “too advanced” and declined a contract to build.
This short kit contains 1 plan sheet and two sheets of laser-cut balsa. Get it HERE.
