Hobbico FlyZone Sky Scream Assembly Manual Download Page 2

Your  SKY  SCREAMER

is  not  a  toy,  but  rather  a

sophisticated, working model that functions very much
like  an  actual  airplane.  Because  of  its  realistic
performance, the model, if not assembled and operated
correctly,  could  possibly  cause  injury  to  yourself  and
spectators or damage property. 

We  highly  recommend  that  you  get  experienced,
knowledgeable  help  with  assembly  and  during  your
first  flights,  to  make  your  R/C  modeling  experience
totally  enjoyable.

You’ll  learn  faster  and  avoid  risking

your model before you’re truly ready to solo. Your local
hobby shop has information about flying clubs in your
area whose membership includes qualified instructors.
You  can  also  contact  the  national 

Academy  of  Model

Aeronautics

(AMA),  which  has  more  than  2,500

chartered  clubs  across  the  country.  Instructor  training
programs and insured newcomer training are available
through any one of these clubs.

Contact  the  AMA  at  the  address  or  toll-free  phone
number below.

1. Assemble the plane 

according to the instructions. Do

not

alter  or  modify  the  model.  If  you  make  any

modifications, you will void your warranty.

2. 

Test

the operation of the model 

before each flight

to

insure that all equipment is operating properly, and that
the model remains structurally sound.

3. Fly only on calm days (with wind speeds less than 5
mph)  and  in  large  open  areas  free  of  trees,  people,
buildings or any other obstacles.

Remember: Take your time and follow the instructions
to  end  up  with  a  well-built  model  that  is  straight,
durable and easy to fly.

The  R/C  model  hobby  becomes  more  and  more
enjoyable  as  your  experience  grows. Your  chances  for
success and graduation to higher levels are very good if
you take your time and follow the assembly and flying
instructions  carefully  and  completely.  We  hope  you
enjoy flying your SKY SCREAMER.

Electronic Control Unit:

This unit controls the motors.

Also,  it  monitors  the  battery  voltage  and  turns  off  the
motors when the voltage gets low. That way there will
be enough battery power to only operate the motors for
steering during the landing.

Motors:

The motors rotate the props to provide thrust.

NiMH  Battery:

Rechargeable  batteries  which  are  used

to power the airplane.

Transmitter  (TX):

This  is  the  hand-held  unit  that  sends

the signal to the receiver. As you move the sticks on the
transmitter,  the  motors  in  the  airplane  will  react
accordingly.
