Dear Customer,
this safety information serves not only to protect the product, but also your own safety and the safety of other persons. Therefore, read this chapter
very carefully before taking the product into operation!
a) General Information
Caution, important note!
Operating the model may cause damage to property and/or individuals. Therefore, make sure that you are sufficiently insured when using the
model, e.g. by taking out private liability insurance. If you already have private liability insurance, verify whether or not operation of the model is
covered by your insurance before commissioning your model.
Note: In some EU countries, you are required to have insurance for any flying models!
• The unauthorized conversion and/or modification of the product is inadmissible for safety and approval reasons (CE).
• This product is not a toy and not suitable for children under 14 years of age.
• The product must not become damp or wet.
• If you do not have sufficient knowledge as to how to deal with remote-controlled models, please seek the advice of an experienced model maker or a model
making club.
• Do not leave packaging material unattended. It may become dangerous playing material for children.
• Should any questions arise that are not answered with the help of these operating instructions, contact our Technical Advisory Service (for contact information
see chapter 1) or another expert.
b) Before Commissioning
• If you use a 35 MHz or 40 MHz remote control, uncoil the aerial wire of the receiver in the model to its complete length. Parts protruding from the model must
not be bent toward the front and attached to the model or cut off. The best reception results are attained if the wire hangs loose from the model and is dragged
during flight.
• Make sure that no other models are operated on the same channel (30 or 40 MHz) within the range of the remote control. Otherwise, you will lose control of
the remote-controlled models! Always use different channels if you wish to operate two or several models in direct proximity of each other simultaneously.
• Check the functional reliability of your model and of the remote control system. Watch out for any visible damage such as defective plug connections or
damaged cables. All moving parts of the model must run smoothly but should not have any play in their bearings.
• Charge the flight battery, which is necessary for operation, as well as the rechargeable battery that may be inserted in the remote control according the
manufacturer's instructions.
• If batteries are used as a transmitter power supply, make sure that they have sufficient remaining capacity (battery checker). If the batteries are empty, always
replace the complete set, never individual cells only.
• Before operation, always control the settings of the trim slider on the transmitter for the various steering directions and, if necessary, adjust them.
• To operate your model, always pull out the telescopic aerial completely as the transmitter (35 or 40 MHz) would otherwise cover a decisively smaller range and
the amplifier of the transmitter would be overloaded significantly.
• Always switch on the transmitter first. Then the flight battery of the model may be connected. Otherwise, the electric model plane may show unpredictable
responses and the rotor may start unintentionally!
• Always check if the rotor is correctly and securely installed before operating the product.
• Make sure that no objects or body parts are in the range or the suction area of the rotor while it is rotating.
