INTRODUCTION

That's a RIOT! That's exactly what the people at the flying
field will say when this little bipe rockets skyward. With
Incredibly fast rolls, unlimited vertical, and amazing
acrobatics the Riot 3D ARF is sure to impress all who see it.
Note: There are two versions of the Riot 3D ARF available
- Transparent Yellow (GPMA1570), White (GPMA1571).
For the latest technical updates or manual corrections to the
Riot 3D ARF visit the Great Planes web site at
www.greatplanes.com. Open the "Airplanes" link, and then
select the Riot 3D 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.
We urge you to join the AMA (Academy of Model
Aeronautics) and a local R/C club. The AMA is the governing
body of model aviation and membership is required to fly at
AMA clubs. Though joining the AMA provides many benefits,
one of the primary reasons to join is liability protection.
Coverage is not limited to flying at contests or on the club
field. It even applies to flying at public demonstrations and
air shows. Failure to comply with the Safety Code (excerpts
printed in the back of the manual) may endanger insurance
coverage. Additionally, training programs and instructors are
available at AMA club sites to help you get started the right
way. There are over 2,500 AMA chartered clubs across the
country. Contact the AMA at the address or toll-free phone
number below.
IMPORTANT!!! Two of the most important things you can do
to preserve the radio controlled aircraft hobby are to avoid
flying near full-scale aircraft and avoid flying near or over
groups of people.
PROTECT YOUR MODEL, YOURSELF
& OTHERS...FOLLOW THESE
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Your Riot 3D 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 Riot 3D 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 unflyable 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 first-class
condition, and a correctly sized motor and components
(batteries, wheels, etc.) throughout the building process.
