Getting Ready
Thoroughly read all the enclosed material, precautions and

you choose to not follow these steps or instructions, it will be
considered negligence.
If after review of this manual and prior to running your 810,
you determine this RC vehicle is not what you want—DO NOT
proceed and DO NOT run the 810. If the 810 has been run,
your local hobby shop will not be able to process a return or
accept it for exchange.
Safety Precautions:
THIS PRODUCT IS NOT A TOY! The 810 is a sophisticated,
high-performance radio control model which needs to be
operated with caution and common sense. Failure to operate
this model in a safe and responsible manner could result in
personal and/or property damage. It is your responsibility
to see that the instructions and warnings are followed and
precautions adhered to.
The 810 is not intended for use by children without direct
adult supervision. Losi and Horizon Hobby shall not be liable
for any loss or damages, whether direct, indirect, special,
incidental, or consequential arising from the use, misuse, or
abuse of this product or any product required to operate it.
*This is still only a model – do not expect it to do unrealistic
stunts.
Warnings:
The 810 is powered by a special fuel containing flammable
liquids and special care must be taken as noted below.
•
Model fuel is dangerous if handled carelessly. Follow
all directions and precautions on the fuel container.
NEVER drink fuel - call a doctor immediately if ingested
or splashed into your eyes.
•
Keep fuel and all chemicals out of the reach of children.
•
Always keep the fuel container closed and never use
around an open flame or while smoking.
•
The exhaust emits poisonous carbon monoxide fumes.
Always run your model in a well ventilated area and
never attempt to run it indoors.
•
The top of the engine and the exhaust pipe are
extremely hot during and after use. Use caution not to
touch these parts, especially when refueling.
•
The engine can be loud especially when run in a
confined area. If you find the noise objectionable make
sure to use ear protection.
•
This model is controlled by a radio signal that is subject
to interference from sources outside your control.
Interference can cause temporary loss of control so it is
advised to always keep a safety margin in all directions
to avoid collisions.
•
Always operate your model in an open area away from
people and cars. The potential speed of this model can
cause injury or damage.
•
Never operate your 810 with low transmitter or receiver
batteries – especially AA dry cells as control and power
will be limited.
•
Repeated or prolonged use of heavy braking will cause
the brakes to overheat and fail! Always leave plenty of
room for stopping.
•
It will take as much room to stop as it does to
accelerate to speed. Always run in an open area with
plenty of braking room.
