MOTOR AND BATTERY SAFETY
Failure to follow these safety precautions may result
in severe injury to yourself and others.
• Do not run the motor in an area of loose gravel or sand; the
propeller may throw such material in your face or eyes.
• Keep your face and body as well as all spectators away
from the plane of rotation of the propeller as you start and
run the motor.
• Keep these items away from the prop: loose clothing, shirt
sleeves, ties, scarfs, long hair or loose objects such as
pencils or screwdrivers that may fall out of shirt or jacket
pockets into the prop.
• The motor can get hot! Do not touch it right after operation.
• Once the motor battery is plugged in to the ESC, stay clear
of the propeller. The motor could start at any time.
• Do not charge the LiPo motor battery in the plane.
• Never leave a LiPo battery unattended while charging.
• If your plane is in a hard crash, remove the LiPo battery and
set it aside in a safe location for at least 20 minutes. If the
battery is damaged in the crash it could catch fi re.
• If the battery starts to swell, quickly move the battery to a
safe location, preferably outside and place it in a bucket
covering the battery with sand.

CHECK LIST
During the last few moments of preparation your mind
may be elsewhere anticipating the excitement of the fi rst
fl ight. Because of this, you may be more likely to overlook
certain checks and procedures that should be performed
before the model is fl own. To help avoid this, a check list
is provided to make sure these important areas are not
overlooked. Many are covered previously in the instruction
manual, so where appropriate, refer to the manual for
complete instructions. Be sure to check the items off as
they are completed.
1. Check the C.G. according to the measurements
provided in the manual.
2. Be certain the battery and receiver are securely
mounted in the fuse with hook and loop material.
3. Balance your model laterally as explained in
the instructions.
4. Use threadlocking compound to secure critical
fasteners such as the screws that hold the screw-lock
pushrod connectors.
5. Add a drop of oil to the axles so the wheels will
turn freely.
6. Reinforce holes for wood screws with thin CA where
appropriate such as the motor mounting screws.
7. Confi rm that all controls operate in the correct direction
and the throws are set up according to the manual.
8. Make sure all servo arms are secured to the servos
with the screws included with your radio.
9. Balance your propeller (and spare propellers).
10. Tighten the propeller nut and spinner.
11. If you wish to photograph your model, do so before
your fi rst fl ight.
12. Range check your radio when you get to the fl ying fi eld.
