SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTROLLERS
• Observe the technical data of the controller.
•
Observe the polarity of all connection cables.
• Avoid short circuits at all costs.
• Install or package the regulator so that it cannot come into contact with grease, oil or water.
• Effective interference suppression measures on the electric motor with, for example, interference suppression
capacitors
• Ensure adequate air circulation.
•
Never reach into the turning circle of the propeller during start-up Risk of injury
Dealing with model aircraft and vehicles requires technical understanding and a high level of safety awareness.
Incorrect assembly, incorrect adjustment, improper use or the like can lead to personal injury or damage to pro
-
perty. Sudden starting of connected motors can lead to injuries due to rotating parts such as propellers. Always
stay away from these rotating parts when the power source is connected. All drive components should be safely
and securely mounted during a function test. Use is only permitted within the scope of the technical specifica
-
tion and only for RC hobby applications. Before use, check that the speed controller is compatible with your
drive motor or power source. Never operate the speed controller (correct speed controller) with external power
supply units. Speed controllers should always be protected from dust, moisture, vibration and other mechanical
stresses. Even splash-proof or waterproof equipment should not be permanently exposed to moisture or moisture.
High operating temperatures or poor cooling should be avoided. The recommended temperature range should
be approximately between -5°C and +50°C. Ensure proper connection and do not cause reverse polarity which
would permanently damage the speed controller. Never disconnect the device from the motor or battery during
operation. Use high-quality plug systems with sufficient load capacity. Avoid strong bending or tensile stress on
the connecting cables. After termination of flight or driving operation, disconnect the battery to prevent deep
discharge of the battery. This would cause permanent damage. For the BEC version of the controller, check that
the BEC power of the device is sufficient for the servos used. Speed controllers should be installed as far away as
possible from other remote control components. We recommend carrying out a range test before operation.
We recommend regular checking of the controller for function and externally visible damage. Do not continue
operating the controller if you notice any damage. The connection cables must not be extended. This can lead to
unwanted malfunctions. Despite existing safety and protective devices of the device, damage may occur which
is not covered by warranty. The warranty also expires if changes are made to the device.
Important information:
The receiver system is powered by the built-in BEC system of the controller.
For commissioning, always move the throttle stick to the „Motor off“ position and switch on the transmitter. Only
then connect the battery. To switch off always disconnect the connection battery motor controller, first then turn
off the transmitter. During the functional test, move the servos of the rudders to neutral position with the remote
control (stick and trimming lever on the transmitter to the middle position). Please make sure to leave the throttle
stick in the lowest position so that the engine does not start. For all work on to the parts of the remote control,
motor or controller, follow the instructions supplied with the units. Also read the instructions of the battery and the
charger carefully before commissioning. Check the engine mounting bolts in the fuselage regularly for tightness.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES
•
Do not immerse the battery in water or other liquids.
•
Do not heat, throw into fire or microwave.
•
Do not short-circuit or charge with reversed polarity
•
Do not expose, deform or throw the battery
•
Do not solder directly on the battery
•
Do not change or open the battery
•
Only charge the battery with suitable chargers, never connect it directly to a power supply unit.
•
Never charge or discharge the battery or charger on a flammable surface.
•
Never leave the battery unattended during charging or discharging processes.
•
Never charge or discharge the battery in direct sunlight or near heaters or fire.
•
Do not use the battery in places subject to high static discharge.
All this can cause the battery to be damaged, explode or even catch fire!
•
Keep the battery away from children
•
Keep leaked electrolyte away from fire, as it is highly flammable and may ignite.
•
The electrolyte liquid should not get into the eyes, if it does, rinse immediately with plenty of clear water and
then see a doctor.
•
The electrolyte liquid can also escape from clothes and other objects with a lot of water or washed off.
•
Observe the safety instructions of the battery manufacturer and the charger manufacturer.
