• Before you begin to fl y, look at the frequency sticker on the back of your transmitter and make
sure no one in the area is on the same frequency. Do not fl y airplane if other radio control
devices are being operated on the same frequency.
• Since your model is controlled by a radio link it is very important to always keep a fresh alkaline
battery in the transmitter.
SAFETY GUIDELINES
• You alone are responsible for operating your model in a safe manner. When fl ying, you are
responsible for your own safety and the safety of others around you. Follow these basic safety
guidelines at all times.
• The spinning rotor blades on this aircraft can be very dangerous! When operating/fl ying, always
be aware of the spinning rotors. Do NOT let them come close to your body, other people and
loose objects such as clothing or jewelry.
• Always fl y your helicopter in a wide-open area, at least the size of a soccer fi eld. Make sure that the area
is free from obstructions such as buildings, electric power lines, trees, roads, other people and vehicles.
Do not fl y around people who are unaware that you are fl ying a model helicopter, and never fl y over
people’s heads.
• Fly ONLY on calm days. Gusty winds and wind over 7MPH will make it diffi cult (if not impossible) to control
your helicopter properly.
• Do not attempt to disassemble any of the model’s components or allow them to get wet.
Electrical damage may occur.
• Never fl y your model from roadways or after dark.
• Keep spectators behind you when fl ying.
• Never use solvents or liquid cleaners to clean this model. Doing so may damage the unit or electronics.
