16. General safety measures
• Take out adequate third-party insurance cover.
• If at all possible join the local model flying club.
At the flying site:
•
Never fly your model above spectators.
•
Do not fly models close to buildings or vehicles.
•
Avoid flying over agricultural workers in neighbouring fields.
•
Do not fly your model in the vicinity of railway lines, major roads or overhead cables.
Pre-flight checks, flying safety:
•
Before you switch on the transmitter, check carefully that no other model flyer is using the
same frequency.
• Carry out a range check with your RC system.
• Check that the transmitter and receiver batteries are fully charged.
• Do not let the model fly out of safe visual range.
Post-flight checks:
•
Clean the model carefully and check that all screws etc. are still tight.
•
Look for wear and damage to the helicopter, and replace worn parts in good time.
•
Ensure that the electronic components such as battery, receiver, gyro etc. are still securely
fixed. Remember that rubber bands deteriorate with age and will eventually fail.
•
Check the receiver aerial. Conductor fractures inside the insulation are often not visible from
the outside.
• If the main rotor should touch the ground when spinning, always replace the blades. Internal
blade damage may not be visible from the outside.
• Never carry the model by the tail boom: too firm a grip will easily deform the tail rotor
pushrod.
