INTRODUCTION

Thank you for your purchase of the Great Planes ElectriFly
FlatOuts Hellcat ARF! Whether flying aerobatics by yourself, or
challenging another flat fighter to combat using the tail
streamers, this model is sure to provide you many hours of
entertainment. These flat fighters can be assembled in as little
as an hour, and their foam construction can be repaired on site
to get you back into combat as quickly as it takes to top off the
battery in your radio. The FlatOuts Hellcat ARF can
comfortably fly in a gymnasium at slow speeds, or fly with
authority outdoors on a light day. And the best feature, the
economical price and quick build time of the FlatOuts Hellcat
ARF will allow you to fly combat aggressively without the worry
of damage to an expensive or time consuming model.
For the latest technical updates or manual corrections to the
Great Planes FlatOuts Hellcat ARF visit the Great Planes
web site at www.greatplanes.com. Open the "Airplanes"
link, and then select the FlatOuts Hellcat 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 FlatOuts Hellcat 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 FlatOuts Hellcat 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.
