CA180 / CA180F

RC Helicopter

Only use batteries designed for the CA180 model helicopters from KY Model            
Company Limited. Always connect the batteries with the correct polarity, otherwise 
electronic parts could be damaged. 

Keep away from spinning rotors. Standing too close to the helicopters in operation 
puts you at risk of being cut by the rotor blades. Keep a distance of roughly 2 meters 
between you and the model. 

Keep fingers and hands away from rotating blades, moving gears and moving parts 
as they may cause injury. Obstructing moving parts during operation may lead to 
serious damage to the model. 

Batteries and motors become hot after operation. Allow them a few minutes to cool 
down before touching batteries or motors directly after flying.

The antenna of the radio should be extended at all times during operation so the 
signal can be compromised. Do not cut the antenna mounted on the radio as doing 
so will influence the signal. 

Do  not  operate  model  with  other  R/C  models  in  the  same  band/frequency  as              
interference of signals will be caused. 

Do not operate model near traffic, children and crowds. This may cause accident or 
injury. 

Do not operate model in dirty, sandy or wet conditions. 

Do not operate model during bad weather, such as rain, wind and snow.

Avoid operating model near pets as pet hair can get sucked in to the rotor. 

Only use KY Model Company Limited replacement and optional parts. Do not modify 
the design of the model. 

Do not clean model with thinner, alcohol or other chemicals as this may warp or 
deform the model. Simply wipe the pieces with a dry cloth if they get dirty.
