I call this the "ultimate" Dimer.  Why?  Because the original Cessna 305 flew two weeks before our FAC Dime Scale cut-off date!  "Ultimate" as in "last"!
This kit builds fast and light, has flattened sides and bottom, but still retains the characteristic trapezoidal cabin cross section.
NOTE: the wooden prop shown in the photos is not legal for FAC Dime Scale as it is of multiple-piece construction.  Test flight shows a Peck 6" prop (legal).
Check out my build and design write-up HERE.

This SHORT KIT contains a plan and two sheets of laser cut parts.
My prototype used a 6" Peck prop with a loop of 1/8" rubber and came out at 11 grams ready to fly without rubber.
