Assembly precautions
We, as the manufacturer, provide you with a good
quality, thoroughly tested kit and instructions, but
ultimately the quality and flyability of your finished model
depends on how you build it; therefore, we cannot in
any way guarantee the performance of your completed
airplane, and no representations are expressed or implied
as to the performance or safety of your completed
airplane.
Take your time and follow the instructions to end up
with a well-built model that is straight and true.
F i r s t - t i m e b u i l d e r s s h o u l d s e e k t h e a d v i c e o f
experienced modellers before beginning assembly and if
they do not fully understand any part of the construction.
Installing a more powerful engine than specified or
flying the hi-speed aggressively may lead to serious
damage and accidents.
Make the assembly correct with this manual.
■ If the assembly manual is not followed, in flight failure or danger
to model and property could occur.
Do not fly before confirming the correct location of the C.G.
■ If the CG is incorrect, the model will be difficult to fly and could
lead to a crash.
Since the direction of the servos of an airplane can be
easily mistaken, be very careful.
■ Double check that all directions are correct.
Do not use an overpowered motor/engine or too large
of propeller on this airframe.
■ When not equipped properly, the performance might not be as
described by the manufacturer.
Make sure that all surfaces are level before flying.
■ If the surfaces are not level, the airplane will not fly straight and
will be hard to control.
Assemble this airplane only in places out of children's
reach.
■ A small child may accidentally operate the system. This could
cause a dangerous situation and injuries. Each part can be very
dangerous when mishandled and cause chemical damage.
Use glues and adhesives that are needed for assembly
in a well ventilated area.
■ Poor ventilation could lead to toxic fumes being inhaled.
DANGER
Do not directly expose model to fuel, oil, exhaust gas,
etc.
■ If left in such an environment, the model may be attacked and
damaged.
Do not add any extra devices that are not suggested by
the factory on the airplane.
■ If the airplane is changed too much, the manufacture cannot
promise correct performance.
Storage and disposal precautions
Other precautions
CAUTION
Do not store devices in the following places:
・ Where it is extremely hot (30℃ [86F] or higher) or cold (0℃ [32F]
or lower)
・ Where the equipment will be exposed to direct sunlight
・ Where the humidity is high
・ Where vibration is prevalent
・ Where it is very dusty
・ Where the device may be exposed to steam and heat
CAUTION
When the device will not be used for a long time,
remove the battery from the transmitter and aircraft
and store them in a dry place where the temperature is
between 0 and 30℃ [32F and 86F].
■ Leaving batteries inside your model and radio when they are not
being used for long periods will result in battery deterioration,
liquid leakage and other damage.
