Ensure that the channel you intend to use is not already in use. Never fly the

Remove all batteries before transporting and storing the model.
•
Do not subject the model to intense humidity, heat, cold, or to dirt.

Pre-flight check
Check for correct functioning and range before every flight. To do so, screw in the
transmitter aerial and extend it fully. Then switch on the transmitter, followed by the
receiver. At an appropriate distance, make sure that all the control surfaces are
working properly and deflecting in the correct direction.
Repeat the check with the motor running, while someone holds the model securely
for you.
The first time you control a model aircraft, it is best to ask an experienced person to
help you with the pre-flight check and during the first few flights.
Care and maintenance
•
Clean the model carefully after every flight. Also remove any dirt from the
propeller. Clean the model and the RC components using suitable cleaning
agents only. Ask your model shop for information.
•
If the model is not to be operated for a considerable time, all the moving parts
must be cleaned and re-lubricated.
