The JN-4 was an American-made biplane. The Curtiss was a biplane trainer based on the JN-3 aircraft, developed by Glenn Curtiss in collaboration with B. Douglas Thomas. Equipped with the Curtiss OX-5 liquid-cooled V8 engine, the aircraft was used as a primary trainer by the United States Army and the Royal Canadian Air Force during World War I, training about 95% of the American and British pilots involved in the war. This one doesn't have a weapon system, but you can join in. It may turn a little slow, but it's a coach, not a fighter. Thank you for flying my plane. Let me know if there is any defect and I will fix it.

@NTH Thank you for driving.
@dbqp Well, I have modified the power and control of the aircraft, and the fastest speed is only 160-170kmh. Although this is far from the reality, I can give her a little power upgrade.
@EternalDarkness Thanks for pointing out the flaws in the work, but I have updated it and made a new one that has been released.
Thank you very much for your driving, mainly some minor flaws, the reality of this aircraft will be relatively slow, I consider that too slow will not be able to turn, I will change it!
This is a very nice build. Very easy and pleasant to fly, and with a fairly low part count. I'm glad you did actual custom control surfaces. Many builders, even the experienced ones, often don't bother with that.
I'd say it's a bit quick. Dropping the engine power by some 20-25% and reducing the mass a bit would make for slightly more realistic performance, but I guess you went for the fun factor there.
The only "issue" I had is that both of the cockpit cameras auto-center, so I can't look around freely.
It is hard to roll when you are pulling up though
its all right
After seeing this on MSFS2024 for so long, and not seeing a good model of it here, you’ve finally DID IT!
Yooo the Jenny!
