E-flite Jenny JN-4 Slow Flyer 250 ARF - Manual (Page 2)

E-flite Jenny JN-4 Slow Flyer ARF Assembly Manual
Introduction
The Curtiss JN-4 “Jenny” first entered service during WWI as
a primary trainer for the fledgling U.S. Army Air Corps.
After the war, surplus Jenny’s found fame with enterprising
barnstormers who crisscrossed the countryside performing
air shows and giving awe-struck passengers their first taste of
flight. E-flite ® captures the magic of this golden era in the
history of flight with this superb Jenny replica. In addition to
its outstanding scale detail, E-flite has given this Jenny excellent
slow flight characteristics that make it perfect for indoor flight.
Using the Manual
This manual is divided into sections to help make assembly
easier to understand, and to provide breaks between each
major section. In addition, check boxes have been placed next
to each step to keep track of each step completed. Steps with
a single circle () are performed once, while steps with two
circles ( ) indicate that the step will require repeating, such
as for a right or left wing panel, two servos, etc.
Remember to take your time and follow the directions.
