1. R/C models are not toys.  This product is a high-precision flying machine. Possibilities of unexpected 

crashes may occur due to electronic interference,  incorrect operation, or poor mechanical maintenance. 
Although it is a small-sized helicopter, the rotor blades rotate at high speeds, which may cause serious 
damage, injury, or death if the model hits people or property. Therefore, extreme caution must be 
exercised during operation.

2. Thunder Tiger ensures parts packaged in this product have the highest quality. However, after assembly 

and usage, parts damaged due to wear or misuse will not be replaced under any circumstances. If you 
have any questions regarding its operation and repair, Thunder Tiger

s service agents are able to provide 

free technical guidance.

3. This product is only recommended for users ages 16 and up. Because flying a R/C helicopter is difficult, 

beginners must receive guidance and supervision from experienced pilots to minimize unexpected danger.  
Practice in spacious areas, far away from obstacles such as buildings, trees, electrical towers, or crowds.

4. To decrease the cost of repair and maintenance for beginners, it is recommended  to fly the helicopter 

with a practice rack and to learn basic flying skills with a computer R/C flying simulator. (Crashes in 
simulators are free to repair!)
