1.1 Operation
of
R/C Jet Aircraft
Flying a high performance R/C jet aircraft requires an experienced R/C pilot to
operate. The high rate of speed at which these models travel can result in
serious property damage or personal injury; greater than most other R/C aircraft.
If this is your first jet aircraft, seek experienced help for the initial setup and flights
of your A-7 Corsair II. Additionally, we are here to help you be successful with
this jet so please feel free to email or call with any questions. In all cases
exercise good judgment in the operation of this R/C jet aircraft and remember:
discretion is the better part of valor
.
1.2
The Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA)
It is recommended that anyone operating an R/C aircraft of any type have an
AMA membership. This offers liability insurance coverage in the event of an
incident resulting in property damage or personal injury. Additionally, operation
of a turbine powered model in the United States requires an AMA turbine waiver.
Operation of a turbine aircraft without a turbine waiver is strictly prohibited.

flown by the Navy (A-7E), Air Force (A-7D), Air National Guard, and export
nations for military service and was one of the first aircraft to feature a heads-up
display (HUD) and a doppler-bounded inertial navigation system (INS).
Considered one of the most accurate strike aircraft made, between six pylons,
and two fuselage launch stations the aircraft had the capability of carrying 15,000
lb of payload. With a typical weapons loadout, the A-7 Corsair II was capable of
