Peanut section

Firstly, what is a Peanut. Ok , leaving aside the obvious, in this context a Peanut size model is defined as having either a maximum wingspan of 13" inches, or a maximum fuselage length of 9" inches. These sizes are recognised by the Federation International Aeronautique (FIA) which is the international governing body of model aeroplane competition. Obviously, you don't have to compete in order to fly a Peanut, due to their small size, they can be flown with great success in school halls or small hall leisure centres.
Here we show you a selection of some of the designs available together with a simple code to denote compexity and detail. Complex highly detailed kits will have a capital 'C' after the description. Less complex kits will have a capital 'M' after and simple kits a capital 'S'.
Just because a kit is listed as simple, it does not mean that a lot more detail cannot be added by you. Always remember however, that in most cases, detail adds weight. If you are just starting out in Peanuts, it might be best to try a simple design first and learn to build light so that on a later model, you will be able to add more detail without loss of flying ability.

Lee Hobbies WW1
Interesting range of mainly WW1 period models. Simple structure allows for personal super detailing if wanted. (They incorporate the printed paper technique, the sheet wood patterns are printed onto sticky backed paper which is stuck onto the balsa. You cut around the part and only remove the paper when you are ready to use the piece. This has the double advantage of helping the strengthen the wood during cutting, and also, as the parts are printed on the paper, you don't lose the part number until you are ready to use it.)
