FlyingFoam Nurf
General Assembly Instructions
These instructions apply to the Nurf, an all EPP forward swept flying wing available from
FlyingFoam.com.
Building and operating a remote controlled aircraft involves risk. By building and flying
this kit you are accepting said risks. We assume a basic level of model aviation
knowledge in both building and operating our aircraft. Please seek experienced help
when required. We make every effort to ensure our kits are of the highest quality, and
any documentation is as accurate as we can make it at the time of writing. Due to the
flexible nature of our designs there are many ways to successfully build our kits. We
document what we feel is the best method for general-purpose use. Please refer to
www.flyingfoam.com for further details.

as a 9000mAhr 3S)
