3 You must use a proper R/C radio that is in first

class condition and meets the current AMA and FCC
requirements and the requirements of your local flying
club, the  c o r r e c t sized engine and correct
components (fuel tank, wheels, etc.).

4 You must properly install all R/C and other
components so that the model operates properly on
the ground and in the air.

5. You must test the operation of the model before the
first and each successive flight to insure that all
equipment is operating, and you must make certain

that the model has remained structurally sound.

6 You must fly the model only with the competent
help of a well experienced R/C pilot if you are not
already an experienced and knowledgeable R/C pilot

at this time.

Note: We, as the kit manufacturer, provide

you with a top quality kit and great

instructions, but ultimately the quality and
flyability of your finished model depends on

how you build it; therefore, we cannot in any

way guarantee the performance of your
completed model, and no representations are
expressed or implied as to the performance
or safety of your completed model.

Remember: Take your time and follow directions

to end up with a well-built model that is straight
and true.
