INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Great Planes ElectroStik EP
ARF. The "Stick" (or "Stik") model is a popular and proven
design that has been around for many years with very little
change. Now we've brought this model into the 21st century
as an electric powered ARF that can be assembled in
minutes and fl ight ready in less than a day!
For the latest technical updates or manual corrections to the
Great Planes ElectroStik EP ARF visit the Great Planes web
site at www.greatplanes.com. Open the "Airplanes" link and
then select the ElectroStik EP ARF. If there is new technical
information or changes to this model a "tech notice" box will
appear in the upper left corner of the page.
If you are not already a member of the AMA, please join!
The AMA is the governing body of model aviation and
membership provides liability insurance coverage, protects
modelers' rights and interests and is required to fl y at most
R/C sites.
IMPORTANT!!! Two of the most important things you can do
to preserve the radio controlled aircraft hobby are to avoid
fl ying near full-scale aircraft and avoid fl ying near or over
groups of people.
PROTECT YOUR MODEL, YOURSELF
& OTHERS....FOLLOW THESE
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Your ElectroStik EP ARF should not be considered a toy,
but rather a sophisticated, working model that functions very
much like a full-size airplane. Because of its performance
capabilities, the ElectroStik EP ARF, if not assembled and
operated correctly, could possibly cause injury to yourself or
spectators and damage to property.
2. You must assemble the model according to the instructions.
Do not alter or modify the model, as doing so may result in an
unsafe or unfl yable model. In a few cases the instructions may
differ slightly from the photos. In those instances the written
instructions should be considered as correct.
3. You must take time to build straight, true and strong.
4. You must use an R/C radio system that is in good condition,
a correctly sized motor, and other components as specifi ed
in this instruction manual. All components must be correctly
installed so that the model operates correctly on the ground
and in the air. You must check the operation of the model and
all components before every fl ight.
5. If you are not an experienced pilot or have not fl own
this type of model before, we recommend that you get the
assistance of an experienced pilot in your R/C club for
your fi rst fl ights. If you're not a member of a club, your local
hobby shop has information about clubs in your area whose
membership includes experienced pilots.
