beginners learn to fly with the help of an experienced pilot.
•
Adult supervision required.
•
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by the

Do not alter or modify the model, as doing so may result in an unsafe or un-

Do not touch the spinning blades or fly over another person’s head.
•
Keep your face and body as well as all spectators away from the rotors
whenever the battery is connected.
•
Maintain a safe pilot-to-helicopter distance while flying.
•
Stay clear of buildings, trees and power lines. AVOID flying in or near crowded
areas. DO NOT fly close to people, children or pets.
•
You must check the operation of the model before every flight to ensure that
it is structurally sound.
•
Your Proto-X FPV should not be considered a toy, but rather a small, working
model. If not operated correctly, the model could possibly cause injury to you
or spectators and damage to property.
•
The Proto-X FPV has parts that rotate and move at high speeds which in
itself poses a certain degree of danger. Please be mindful of this as you
operate your model.
•
Choose a wide open space with minimal obstructions and do not operate your
model near buildings or crowds of people, high voltage power lines or trees.
•
Improper use may cause damage to people or property.
•
Your Proto-X FPV is powered by a Lithium-Polymer (LiPo) battery. To avoid
risk of fire damage use ONLY the provided charger and avoid charging your
model on a combustible surface.
•
If you do not plan on flying your Proto-X FPV for a week or more, store the
battery approximately 50% charged (one and one half hour charge time from
a fully depleted battery) to maintain best battery performance.
•
Never get your Proto-X FPV wet or operate in the rain.
