INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Great Planes Rifl e ARF.
Prepare to be thrilled! Before fl ying your Rifl e make sure
you're really ready; get a good night's sleep and do what you
can to optimize your reaction time and concentration level,
because the Rifl e's small size and extreme speed can cause
it to get out of visual range within a few seconds! We've
clocked it at average speeds of 90mph, but in actuality it
seems like it's going over 200! The Rifl e does fl y predictably
and smoothly, so TOC (Tournament of Champions) skills
are not required, but you still must be a competent pilot with
the ability to remain calm and react decisively when being
challenged. And even after you get used to your Rifl e, you'll
still breathe a sigh of relief after every landing, but you'll
become addicted to the speed and be ready for the next
fl ight after you've calmed your nerves.
For the latest technical updates or manual corrections to
the Rifl e visit the Great Planes web site at www.greatplanes.
com. Open the "Airplanes" link, then select Rifl e 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.

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 Rifl e 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 Rifl e, 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.
