●
Check before every flight to ensure that the batteries in the transmitter are working properly. The needle in the voltage meter
should be in the silver "safe" area. Change the batteries when the needle falls into the red "unsafe" area.
●
Before recharging the flight battery, let the motor run until the flight battery is discharged and the motor won't run any longer.
This will ensure you don't overcharge the flight battery.
●
Do not recharge the flight battery if it is hot. Wait for the flight battery to cool before recharging it.
●
Never leave the flight battery plugged into the airplane unless you are flying or testing the controls.
●
Before flying, always double-check that you've extended the transmitter antenna completely.
●
Never cut or otherwise shorten the receiver antenna or you will lose control of the airplane in a very short distance. Let the
antenna hang behind the back of the fuselage.
●
Before each flight, do a quick motor test to make sure that the motor is producing full power. If it isn't, you may need to charge
the flight battery longer. Do not charge a completely drained flight battery longer than 2.5 hours or damage to the flight battery
may occur.
●
Before each flight, double-check that the control surfaces are moving in the correct direction. If they aren't, adjust the servo
reversing switches on the transmitter as described on page # 13.
●
When you fly, orientate yourself so that the sun is at your back. Don't fly directly into the sun or you may lose sight of the
airplane.
●
Separate flight batteries can be purchased and charged before going to the flying field. An extra flight battery will double your
flight time. See the replacement parts list on page # 18 for the part number of the flight battery.
●
Do not fly in wind over 10-15 miles per hour, or the airplane will be very difficult to control and a crash might occur.
●
Do not fly your airplane if another model is on the same frequency as you. The frequency number is printed on front of the
crystal mount on the transmitter and on the receiver.
●
Always be conscious of the spinning propeller. Be careful not to allow loose clothing to be drawn into the propeller.
●
If you're under 12 years of age we suggest you fly while accompanied by an adult.
●
Never attempt to disassemble any of the airplane's components, especially the transmitter, charger and flight battery.
●
Do not allow any of the electrical components to get wet or damage may occur.
●
Periodically double-check that the propeller nut is tight. Check the propeller and spinner for cracks or other damage. If either
the propeller or spinner is damaged, replace them immediately.
●
If you have encountered any trouble with any of the steps listed in these operating instructions, or with how the airplane
flies, please refer to the troubleshooting guide on the next page. The troubleshooting guide is provided to help you find a quick
