●
Check before every flight to ensure that the batteries in the transmitter are working properly. The needle in the voltage
meter should be in the green "safe" area. Change the batteries when the needle falls into the red "unsafe" area.
●
Before recharging the flight battery, let the motor 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 airplane unless you are flying or testing the controls.
●
Before flying, always double-check that you've extended the transmitter antenna completely.
●
Before each flight, do a quick motor test to make sure that the motor is producing full power. If it isn'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.
●
Before each flight, double-check that the control surfaces are moving in the correct direction. If they aren't, adjust the
servo reversing switches on the transmitter as described on page # 10.
●
When you fly, orientate yourself so that the sun is at your back. Don't fly directly into the sun or you may lose visual
sight of the airplane.
●
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 winds over 5 - 10 miles per hour, or the airplane will be very difficult to control and a crash might occur.
●
Do not fly your airplane if another airplane is on the same frequency as you. The frequency number is printed on front
of the crystal mount on the transmitter.
●
Always be conscious of the spinning propeller. Be careful not to allow loose clothing to be drawn into the propeller.
●
If you're under 12 years of age we suggest you fly while accompanied by an adult.
●
Never attempt to disassemble any of the airplane's components, especially the transmitter, charger and flight battery.
●
Do not allow any of the electrical components to get wet or damage may occur.
●
The propeller is a friction fit to the motor shaft. Sometimes the propeller may be knocked loose during a crash or it may
become loose from taking it off. If this is the case, simply apply a thin layer of Elmers
®
White Glue to the motor shaft
before installing the propeller. This will help keep it firmly in place. Be careful not to get glue inside the motor.

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