IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS TO PROTECT YOUR
MODEL, YOURSELF & OTHERS
1. This product should not be considered as a toy, but rather a sophisticated,
working model that functions much like a full-scale airplane. Because of its
performance capabilities, the model airplane, if not assembled and operated
correctly, could possibly cause injury to you or spectators and damage to
property.
2. Assemble the model airplane according to the instructions. Do not alter or modify
the model, as doing so may result in an unsafe or unworkable model. In a few
cases the instructions may differ slightly from the photos. In those instances the
written instructions should be considered as correct. If you have any question
about this instruction, contact us before you assemble the model.
3. Take time to build straight, TRUE and STRONG.
4. Maxford USA recommends that you use a good quality radio system and our
recommended or same sized good quality motor and components throughout the
building process.
5. Install all R/C and other components correctly so that the model operates
correctly on the ground and in the air.
6. Always check the operation of the model before every flight to insure that all
equipment is operating and that the model has remained structurally sound.
Always check clevises or other connectors and replace them if necessary.
7. If you are not an experienced pilot or have not flown this type of model before,
we recommend that you get the assistance of an experienced pilot.
8. While this kit has been flight tested to exceed normal use, if the plane will be
used for extremely high stress flying, such as racing, or if a motor larger than one
in the recommended range is used, the modeler is responsible for taking steps to
reinforce the high stress points and/or substituting hardware more suitable for the
increased stress.
WARNING
Some parts included in this kit are made of fiberglass, the fiber of which may cause eye,
skin and respiratory tract irritation. Never blow into a part to remove fiberglass dust, as
the dust will blow back into your eyes. Always wear safety goggles, a particle mask and
rubber gloves when grinding, drilling and sanding fiberglass parts.
LITHIUM BATTERY HANDLING & USAGE

all instructions could cause permanent damage to the battery and its surroundings, and
