SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

   Keep your face and body as well as all spectators away from the rotating 

plane of the blades whenever the battery is connected. Keep loose clothing, 
shirt sleeves, ties, scarfs, long hair or loose objects such as pencils or 
screwdrivers that may fall out of shirt or jacket pockets away from the 
rotors. The spinning blades of a model quadcopter can cause serious 
injury. When choosing a flying site for your RXD250, stay clear of buildings, 
trees and power lines. AVOID flying in or near crowded areas. DO NOT 
fly close to people or pets. Maintain a safe distance from the quadcopter.

   Your RXD250 should not be considered a toy. Because of its performance 

capabilities, the RXD250, if not operated correctly, could cause injury to 
you or spectators and damage to property.

   DO NOT alter or modify the model. Doing so may result in an unsafe or 

unflyable model.

   When and if repairs are necessary you must correctly install all components 

so that the model operates properly on the ground and in the air. Please 
check the operation of the model before every flight to insure that all 
equipment is operating and that the model has remained structurally 
sound. Be sure to check connectors and the propellers before each flight. 
Replace them if they show any signs of wear or fatigue.

KNOW BEFORE YOU FLY

As a new owner of an unmanned aircraft system (UAS), you are responsible
