If this should happen, your model will be uncontrollable and completely
unpredictable. Never leave your radio control system unguarded, as another
person might pick it up and try to use it.
Do not switch on the electric motor unless you are sure that there is nothing in
the rotational plane of the propeller. Never attempt to stop the spinning propeller.
Electric motors with the propeller attached should only be run when firmly
mounted.
If you are to fly your model safely and avoid problems, it is essential that you are
aware of its position and attitude throughout each flight - so don’t let it fly too far
away! If you detect a control problem or interference during a flight, immediately
land the model to prevent a potential accident. Models must always give way to
full-size aircraft. Take-off and landing strips should be kept free of people and
other obstacles.
Your RC system can only work reliably if the batteries are kept fully charged.
Never use batteries which are hot, faulty or damaged. At all times heed the
instructions provided by the battery manufacturer.
Before each flight check that all functions on the model aircraft are working
correctly, and that the radio control system is in good order and operating at full
range.
Note that the motor control (throttle) function on the transmitter must always be
moved to the OFF position as the first stage in preparing for a flight. To avoid the
danger of the electric motor bursting into life unexpectedly, always switch on the
transmitter first, and only then the receiving system. The opposite applies at the
end of a flight: always switch off the receiving system first, and finally the
transmitter.
Check that the control surfaces follow the movement of the transmitter sticks.
It is essential to take out valid third-party insurance before you fly this model.
Please don’t misunderstand the purpose of these notes. We only want to make
you aware of the many dangers and hazards which can arise if you work
carelessly or irresponsibly. If you take reasonable care, model flying is a highly
creative, instructive, enjoyable and relaxing pastime.
