Check before every flight to ensure that the batteries in the transmitter are working properly.  The green LED glows to

indicate good battery condition and the red LED glows to indicate inputs from the transmitter.  When the batteries are
depleted to the point they're unsafe to use, an audio alert will sound from the transmitter.

Before recharging the flight battery, let the motors run until the flight battery is completely drained.  This will ensure you

don't overcharge the battery.

Do not recharge the flight battery if it is hot.  Wait for the flight battery to cool before recharging it.

Never leave the flight battery plugged into the kite-plane unless you are flying or testing the controls.

Before flying, always double-check that you've extended the transmitter antenna completely.

Never cut or otherwise shorten the receiver antenna or you will lose control of the kite-plane in a very short distance.

Let the antenna hang over the front of the kite wing assembly.

Before each flight, do a quick motor test to make sure that the motors are producing full power.  If they aren't, you may

need to charge the flight battery longer.  Do not charge a completely drained flight battery longer than 3 hours or damage
to the flight battery may occur.

When you fly, orientate yourself so that the sun is at your back.  Don't fly directly into the sun or you may lose sight of

the kite-plane.

Separate flight batteries can be purchased and charged before going to the flying field.  An extra flight battery will

double your flight time.  See the replacement parts list on page # 15 for the part number of the flight battery.

Do not fly in wind over 5-7 miles per hour, or the kite-plane will be very difficult to control and a crash might occur.

Do not fly your kite-plane if another kite-plane is on the same frequency as you.

Always be conscious of the spinning propellers.  Be careful not to allow loose clothing to be drawn into the propellers.

If you're under 12 years of age we suggest you fly while accompanied by an adult.

Never attempt to disassemble any of the kite-plane's components, especially the transmitter, charger and flight battery.

Do not allow any of the electrical components to get wet or damage may occur.

Periodically double-check that the propellers are firmly attached to the motor shafts.  Check the propellers for cracks

or other damage.  If one or more propellers is damaged, replace it immediately.

If you have encountered any trouble with any of the steps listed in these operating instructions, or with how the

kite-plane flies, please refer to the troubleshooting guide on the next page.  The troubleshooting guide is provided to
help you find a quick and immediate resolution to any number of problems that might occur.
