The governing body for radio-control model airplanes in the United States is the
ACADEMY OF MODEL AERONAUTICS,
commonly called the

AMA SAFETY CODE
provides guidelines for the safe operation of R/C model airplanes. While
AMA membership is not necessarily mandatory, it is required by most R/C flying clubs in the U.S. and provides you with important
liability insurance in case your R/C model should ever cause serious property damage or personal injury to someone else. For

WARNING! THIS IS NOT A TOY!
Flying machines of any form, either model-size or full-size, are not toys! Because of the speeds that airplanes must achieve in
order to fly, they are capable of causing serious bodily harm and property damage if they crash. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY
AND YOURS ALONE to assemble this model airplane correctly according to the plans and instructions, to ground test the finished
model before each flight to make sure it is completely airworthy, and to always fly your model in a safe location and in a safe
manner. The first test flights should only be made by an experienced R/C flyer, familiar with high performance R/C aircraft.
SIG Manufacturing highly recommends that you visit the informational website
www.knowbeforeyoufly.org
to learn about
flying safely and responsibly, and following the new regulations put in place by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
