• Check the functional reliability of your model and of the remote control system. Watch out for any visible
damage such as damaged mechanics (e.g. rotors), defective plug connections or damaged cables. All
moving parts on the model must run smoothly but must not have any tolerance in the bearing.
• Check before each operation the correct and secure position of the rotors.
•
The flight battery required for operation must be charged before operation. Ensure that the batteries in
the transmitter have a sufficient remaining capacity (transmitter indication). If the batteries are empty,
always replace the complete set, never individual cells only.
•
When the rotors are running, make sure that neither objects nor body parts are in the rotating and suction
area of the rotors.
c) During Operation
• Do not take any risks when operating the product! Your own safety and that of your environment depends
completely on your responsible use of the model.
• Improper operation can cause serious damage to people and property! Therefore make sure to keep a
sufficiently safe distance from persons, animals or objects during operation. Never try to grab the flying
model with your hand!
• Select an appropriate location for the operation of your model.
•
Fly your model only if your ability to respond is unrestricted. The influence of tiredness, alcohol or
medication can cause incorrect responses.
• Do not direct your model towards spectators or towards yourself.
•
Motors, motor regulator and flight battery can heat during operation. For this reason, take a break of 5 to
10 minutes before recharging the integrated flight battery.
•
Never switch off the remote control (transmitter) while the model is in use. After landing, always first
disconnect the battery from the quadrocopter. Only then may the remote control be switched off.
• In case of a defect or a malfunction, remove the problem before using the model again.
• Never expose your model or the remote control to direct sunlight or excessive heat for an extended
period of time.
•
In the case of a severe crash (e.g. from a high altitude). The electric gyro sensors can be damaged.
Therefore, full functionality must be tested before flying again without fail!
•
If the quadrocopter suffers an impact that results in any alteration of its flight characteristics, please stop
using it immediately.
• Switch off the rotor motors at once after a crash. Rotating rotors may be damaged if they come into
contact with obstacles e.g. overcharging. Before flying again, these should be checked for possible tears
or breakages!
• To avoid damage to the model through crashing due to low voltage or deep discharge of the rechargeable
battery through total discharge, we recommend that you respect the low voltage light signals without fail.
•
Bear in mind that the quadrocopter must be flown at least 2-3 meteres from the operator or from other
person that happen to be in the vicinity, to ensure that it cannot hit anybody in the head, face or body.
• Keep all parts of the body away from the rotors at all times when they are moving.
