VolantexRC ASW28 Instructions Manual - Battery Warnings
The ideal C
of
G
position is 56mm behind the leading edge measured
at where the wing meets the fuselage
(you can safely be + or -
5mm either side of this measurement)
. The C
of
G has a GREAT
effect on the way the model fli
es
. If the C
of
G is too far aft ( tail
heavy ), the model will be too responsive and difficult to control. If
the C
of
G is too far forward (nose-heavy), the model will be too
stable and not re-sponsive enough.
In order to obtain the
correct
C
of G as
specified, add weight to the fuselage or move the battery
position.
Check the C
of
G.before
you fly.
Battery Warnings
IMPORTANT NOTE: Lithium Polymer LiPo) batteries are significantly more vola-
tile than alkaline
,
NiCd
or
NiMH batteries
which are
also used in RC applications.
All
instructions and warnings must be followed exactly to prevent property
damage and/ or personal injury as mishandling of LiPo batteries can result in
fire.
By handling, charging or using the included LiPo battery you assume all risks assoc-
iated with LiPo batteries. If you do not agree with these conditions, please return
your complete product in new, unused condition to the place of purchase immediately.
You must read the following safety instructions and warnings before handling,
charging or using the LiPo battery.
•
You must charge the LiPo battery in a safe area away from flammable materials.
•
Never charge the LiPo battery unattended at any time. When charging the bat-
tery you should always monitor the charging
process and react immediately to
any potential problems that may occur.
• After flying / discharging the battery you must allow it to cool to ambient /
room temperature before recharging. Also, it is NOT necessary or recommended
to discharge the battery ‘completely’ before charging ( LiPo batteries have no
‘memory’ and it’s safe to charge partially discharged batteries when using an
appropriate charger
that is set correctly
).
