FT Mighty Mini Jenny
The FT Mighty Mini Jenny is an iconic fast build representation of the classic Curtis JN-4 “Jenny”. This 30 inch sub 250 gram biplane was designed by Dave Jester to build fast and fly slow! In as little as one hour, you can go from the build table to the skies and experience all the thrills of classic barnstorming flight.
The FT Mighty Mini Jenny is a three channel aircraft, which gives you rudder, elevator, and throttle control. This tiny scale aircraft is at home in large gymnasiums and backyards cruising around at credibly slow speeds on calm days.
The FT Mighty Mini Jenny was also a special project as a special surprise for our wonderful team leader, backbone of Flite Test, and the beloved wife of Josh Bixler. For over 10 years, Jen Bixler has requested this very airplane to be added into the FT hanger for not only her love, a vintage aviation, but of course its awesome name! Dave Jester stepped up to the plate and knocked it out of the park with this amazing new addition to the mighty mini fleet of FT aircraft.
If you’re ready to take to the skies, grab your scarf and goggles and of course a hot glue gun. I hope that this awesome little plane brings as many smiles and memories for you as it has for us.
If your passion is scale, you can easily upgrade your FT Mighty Mini Jenny with optional 3D printed engine halves, a scale radiator or even the whole cowling. We even have you covered (literally) with optional decals!
The FT Mighty Mini Jenny is powered by the FT Power Pack A and flown with a 2cell 800mah battery. This powerful combo can easily fly your little biplane up to 10 plus minutes.
