Warning notes
1.
The set contains small parts which could cause injury if swallowed; for this reason
it must be kept out of the reach of children under three years of age.
2. Do not attempt to fly the model indoors. The helicopter should only be flown in an open
indoor space devoid of obstacles.
4. Always ensure that the batteries are new or fully charged.
5. Do not dismantle or modify any of the parts supplied in the set; this applies in particular to
the transmitter and the flight battery.
6. Do not allow moisture or damp to penetrate the components, as water may damage the
electronics.
7. Take care to avoid the rotors coming into contact with fingers, hair or loose clothing.
8. Remember to switch the model off when you are not using it.
9. Use only the recommended battery charger and flight battery.
11. We recommend adult supervision when young people fly the model. Children must be ad-
vised of the potential hazards involved in handling the model.
Safety notes regarding power sources (Transmitter Sky Surfer 2.0)
• Never attempt to charge any battery which is not specifically stated to be rechargeable.
• Unless the instructions expressly state otherwise, always remove rechargeable batteries
from the device before charging them.
• Rechargeable batteries must only be charged under the supervision of an adult.
• If you are using dry cells, never use different cell types, nor a mixture of new and used
cells.
• Use only batteries of the recommended type, or their exact equivalent.
• Always take care to insert battery cells with correct polarity.
• When dry cells are exhausted, remove them from the device immediately.
• Take care not to short-circuit battery terminals.
• Never use defective or damaged rechargeable or dry batteries, or packs consisting of diffe-
rent cell types.
Warnings relating to the use of LiPo batteries (Sky Surfer 2.0)
Lithium-Polymer (abbreviation: LiPo) batteries require particularly careful handling. This applies
to charging and discharging techniques, and also to storage and other aspects of general hand-
ling. Special measures must be observed, and these are outlined below.
• Mishandling these batteries may lead to explosions, fire, smoke and a risk of poisoning. In
addition to these hazards ignoring our instructions and warnings will result in loss of battery
performance and other problems.
• The capacity of a LiPo battery declines every time you charge or discharge it. Storing these
batteries at excessively high or low temperatures may also cause a gradual reduction in ca-
pacity. In typical modelling usage these batteries will be subject to high discharge currents
and motor induction currents, with the result that their capacity will fall to around 50 - 80% of
the capacity of a new battery after 50 charge / discharge cycles even if you observe all the
