SECTION 6: GETTING READY TO FLY YOUR TIGERSHARK RTF
Step 1: Charging the Flight Battery
❑
Plug the flight battery connector into the battery
charger connector. When plugged in properly you should
hear the connectors "click" together.
As a safety feature, the connectors can
only be plugged in one way.
❑
Plug the charger into a 110V AC wall outlet.
❑
Charge the flight battery for 2.5 hours. Be careful
not to overcharge the flight battery.
❑
To unplug the connectors, squeeze the tab on the
battery connector and pull the two connectors apart.
PRO TIP
Step 2: Choosing Your Flying Field
❑
After completely charging the flight battery, install it into the fuselage, using the same techniques as when you installed
it previously.
Always remove the flight battery from the fuselage for the charging process.
❑
The flying field you choose should be a large, open field with grass. There should not be any vehicles, buildings,
power lines, trees, large rocks or anything else that your airplane can crash into. We don't recommend landing your
airplane on hard surfaces like asphalt or concrete. Doing so can damage the bottom of your airplane and possibly break
the propellers and/or damage the motors.
Step 2: Choosing Your Flying Field
Step 3: Choosing a Day to Fly
❑
Until you become a proficient flyer you should always plan on flying your airplane when there's no wind. We strongly
suggest waiting for a calm day. If it's windy out and you attempt to fly, it will only make learning to fly the airplane more
difficult. Once you are proficient at flying the airplane, you can fly the airplane in light winds - no more than 5-7
miles per hour. Flying in stronger winds is not recommended.
WARNING
If the flight battery is hot to the
touch, it is fully charged. Unplug
it from the charger immediately.
