Construction Manual
WARNING
READ THROUGH THIS MANUAL
BEFORE STARTING CONSTRUCTION.
IT CONTAINS IMPORTANT WARNINGS
AND INSTRUCTIONS CONCERNING
THE CONSTRUCTION AND USE OF THIS
MODEL.
A Radio-Controlled aircraft is not a toy!
If misused, it can cause serious bodily harm
and damage to property. Fly only in open
areas, preferably at AMA (Academy of Model
Aeronautics) approved flying sites, following all
instructions included with your radio, powerplant,
electronics and batteries.
We urge you to join the AMA (Academy of Model Aeronautics) and
a local R/C club. The AMA is the governing body of model aviation
and membership is required to fly at AMA clubs.
Though joining the AMA provides many benefits, one of the
primary reasons to join is liability protection.
Additionally, training programs and instructors are available at
AMA club sites to help you get started the right way. There are
over 2,500 AMA chartered clubs across the country. Contact the
AMA at the address or toll-free phone number below:
Academy of Model Aeronautics
5161 East Memorial Drive • Muncie, IN 47302
Phone (800) 435-9262 • www.modelaircraft.org
IMPORTANT!!!
Two of the most important things you
can do to preserve the radio controlled aircraft hobby are to avoid
flying near full-scale aircraft and avoid flying near or over groups
of people.
