R/C Helicopter Safety
A model helicopter must be built exactly in accordance with the assembly instructions. Compass Model Ltd. has spent much
time and efforts refining this product to make it reliable in operation and easy to build. Vibration and stress levels are high and
all fasteners and attachments must be secure for safe operation. Safe operation is the responsibility of the builder/flyer and
starts with careful construction and continues with selection and installation of reliable radio equipment and motor/engine.
The need for safety is nowhere greater than at the flying field. A number of guidelines for safe flight have been developed by
experienced flyers and are set down here. It is urged that they be read, understood and followed.
each country has its own security application which cannot be laid down here so prior to any flight request the
rules to apply in your country/Flying field.

Attention
:
The radio-controlled model helicopter contained in this kit is not a toy, but a sophisticated piece of equipment. This product
is not recommended for use by children. Radio-controlled models such as this are capable of causing both property damage
and/or bodily harm to both the operator/assembler and/or spectator if not properly assembled and operated. Compass
Model Ltd. assumes no liability for damage that could occur from the assembly and/or use/misuse of this product. Although
the Atom 7HV is powered by a quiet, smooth-running electric motor, it should be assembled and operated with the same
care as glow engine helicopters. When operating your Atom 7HV, please exercise caution and safety.
