Flying Your Jenny
28...Charge the airborne battery pack and connect it to the
system. Test the radio and electric motor system WITHOUT
THE PROPELLER ATTACHED. Make sure that all of the
controls and the throttle function properly.
29...When everything checks out, securely attach the propeller
to the motor. Don’t forget to install the soft rubber prop shaft
protector!
30...BALANCING YOUR JENNY IS IMPORTANT!
Place the battery in the model and install the plastic cockpit
cover. Check the balance of the model by turning it upside
down and supporting it on your finger tips placed 1/2” back
from the leading edge of the bottom wing. Hold your fingers
close to the fuselage sides. Supported this way your model
should hang perfectly level. If the model hangs tail low, you
must move the receiver and battery forward in the fuselage, or
if they are already as far forward as possible, add weight to the
nose of the model until it hangs level. If the model hangs nose
low, you must move the receiver and battery towards the rear,
or add weight to the tail of the model until it hangs level.
31...Always pre-flight your model thoroughly before each flight. It is your responsibility to verify that your model is airworthy.
Always follow established safety guidelines while installing the battery, operating the motor, radio, and while flying the model.
WARNING! THIS IS NOT A TOY!
Flying machines of any form are not toys! Because of the speeds that air-
planes must achieve in order to fly, they are capable of causing
serious bodily harm and property damage if they crash. IT IS YOUR
RESPONSIBILITY AND YOURS ALONE to assemble this model
airplane correctly according to the plans and instructions, to ground test
the finished model before each flight to make sure it is completely
airworthy, and to always fly your model in a safe location and in a safe
manner. The first test flights should only be made by an experienced R/C
flyer, familiar with high performance R/C aircraft.
