Jenny XL

[Bighorn]

Is anybody building the Jenny XL? I’m done with the fuse and starting on the wings. I’m not sure how to use this piece? I assume it’s a dihedral gauge.

You are correct. Looks like there is a slot for the lower wing and another slot for the upper wing

FT responded to my question by saying I don’t use the piece to set top wing dihedral, only use it for the bottom wing.
In fact they will revise the piece on their next run of the kit.
The way it builds is you glue the interplane supports on the bottom of the top wing, this creates the wing camber but also makes it impossible to set dihedral with this piece.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention!
