• Before each start up, check the functional safety of your model and the remote control system. Pay attention to vis-
ible damages, for example, defective plugged connections or damaged cables. All moving parts should move easily,
but should not display play in their bearings.
• If there are any questions that cannot be clarified with the assistance of these operating instructions, please contact
us (for contact information, see Chapter 1) or another specialist.
The operation and use of remote controlled models is something that must be learned! If you have never
remotely controlled a model, start very carefully and familiarise yourself with the responses of the model
to the remote control commands. Be patient!
b) Operation
• If you do not have sufficient knowledge of the handling of remotely controlled models, please consult an experienced
model operator or model construction club.
• When starting up, always switch the transmitter on first. Then you may switch the receiver in the model on. Other-
wise, the model may react in an unpredictable way! Avoid attempting to “point” the tip of the antenna at the model.
• Before operating, check with the model at a standstill to ensure whether it responds as expected to the remote
control commands.
• When operating a model, pay attention to ensure that no body parts or objects are located in the danger zone of
engines or other rotating drive parts.
• Improper operation may cause serious injury or property damage! Always ensure direct visual contact with the
model and do not operate it at night.
• Only control your model when your responses are not influenced. If you are tired, or under the influence of alcohol
or medication, you may react incorrectly.
• Only operate your model in an area in which you do not endanger other people, animals or objects. Operate only on
private premises or areas specifically set aside for this purpose.
• In the event of a fault, immediately cease operating your model and eliminate the cause of the fault before using
the model again.
• Do not operate your remote control system in a storm, under high-voltage power lines or in the vicinity of radio
masts.
• Always keep the remote control (transmitter) switched on as long as the model is in operation. After ending your
model use, always switch the engine off first, then switch off the receiving system. Then you may switch remote
control transmitter off.
• Protect the remote control system from damp and heavy soiling.
• Do not expose the transmitter to direct sunlight or great heat over a longer period of time.
• If the battery in the remote control is weak, the range will be reduced. If the receiver battery is weak,
the model will not respond correctly to the remote control. In this case, stop operating immediately!
Recharge the battery pack!
• Do not take risks when operating the product! Your own safety and that of your surroundings depend upon your
responsible handling of the model.
