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.
5. You must correctly install all R/C and other components so
that the model operates correctly on the ground and in the air.
6. You must check the operation of the model before every
flight to insure that all equipment is operating and that the
model has remained structurally sound. Be sure to check
clevises or other connectors often and replace them if they
show any signs of wear or fatigue.
7. If you are not an experienced pilot or have not flown this
type of model before, we recommend that you get the
assistance of an experienced pilot in your R/C club for your
first flights. 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.
We, as the kit manufacturer, provide you with a top quality,
thoroughly tested kit and instructions, but ultimately the
quality and flyability of your finished model depends on
how you build it; therefore, we cannot in any way
guarantee the performance of your completed model, and
no representations are expressed or implied as to the
performance or safety of your completed model.
Remember: Take your time and follow the instructions to
end up with a well-built model that is straight and true.
BATTERY CHARGER OPTIONS
The Great Planes Fokker D.VII EP ARF is designed for use
with LiPo (Lithium-Polymer) batteries only. All LiPo batteries
require a charger specifically designed for charging LiPo
batteries. The use of a charger not designed for charging
LiPo batteries will result in damage to the batteries and
possibly a fire.
We recommend the use of the Great Planes Triton
Peak Charger (GPMM3150), the ElectriFly DC PolyCharge
(GPMM3010) or for charging more than one battery at a
time the ElectriFly PolyCharge4 (GPMM3015).
