A Peanut Goodyear Racer with a difference - this is a high-wing!  This is a new keel-and-half-shell design, drawn and built in the spring of 2024.  The full scale version qualified for Formula 1 races in Florida in 1969, but was not permitted to compete.

This is a Peanut Scale High Wing built using all 1/16" wood.  Use light wood to keep the model light.  My prototype came out at 15 grams, but could have been a gram or two lighter (heavy prop and nose button).  Parts for built-up balsa wheels and wheel pants are included.

This short kit contains: 3 pieces of laser-cut balsa, a plan and a 3D-printed tail wheel.
