The electric motor and motor battery used in the Slinger are
very powerful and the spinning propeller has a lot of
momentum; therefore, if you touch the propeller while it is
spinning it may inflict severe injury. Respect the motor and
propeller for the damage they are capable of and take
whatever precautions are necessary to avoid injury. Always
disconnect and remove the motor battery until you are
ready to fly again and always make sure the switches are
turned off before connecting the battery.
AMA SAFETY CODE (excerpts)
Read and abide by the following Academy of Model
Aeronautics Official Safety Code:
GENERAL
1. I will not fly my model aircraft in competition or in the
presence of spectators until it has been proven to be airworthy
by having been previously successfully flight tested.
2. I will not fly my model aircraft higher than approximately
400 feet within 3 miles of an airport without notifying the
airport operator. I will give right of way to and avoid flying in
the proximity of full scale aircraft. Where necessary, an
observer shall be utilized to supervise flying to avoid having
models fly in the proximity of full-scale aircraft.
3. Where established, I will abide by the safety rules for the
flying site I use and I will not willfully and deliberately fly my
models in a careless, reckless and/or dangerous manner.
7. I will not fly my model unless it is identified with my name
and address or AMA number, on or in the model.
RADIO CONTROL
1. I will have completed a successful radio equipment ground
check before the first flight of a new or repaired model.
2. I will not fly my model aircraft in the presence of
spectators until I become a qualified flyer, unless assisted
by an experienced helper.
3. I will perform my initial turn after takeoff away from the pit,
spectator and parking areas and I will not thereafter
perform maneuvers, flights of any sort or landing
approaches over a pit, spectator or parking area.
4. I will operate my model using only radio control
frequencies

FIND A SAFE PLACE TO FLY
Though the Slinger is a "Park Flyer," the best place to fly any
model is at an AMA chartered club field. Club fields are set up
for R/C flying, making your outing safer and more enjoyable.
We recommend that you join the AMA and a local club so you
can have a safe place to fly and have insurance to cover you in
case of a flying accident. The AMA address and telephone
number are in the front of this manual.
If there is no club or R/C flying field in your area, find a
suitable site that is clear of trees, telephone poles,
buildings, towers, busy streets and other obstacles. Since
you are not flying at a sanctioned AMA site, be aware that
there may be others like yourself who could be flying
nearby. If both of your models happen to be on the same
frequency, interference will likely cause one or both of the
models to crash. An acceptable minimum distance between
flying models is five miles, so keep this in mind when
searching for a flying site.
In addition to obstacles, it is important to be aware of
people who may wander into the area once you begin
flying. At AMA club flying sites it is a severe rule infraction
to fly over others, and this is a good practice if flying
elsewhere. R/C models tend to attract onlookers whose
numbers can soon multiply, forming small, uncontrolled
crowds. Onlookers pose two main problems. First is the
danger of actually crashing your model into a person,
causing injury. Second is the distraction from those who ask
you questions while you are trying to concentrate on flying.
To minimize or avoid this problem, have an assistant
standing by who can spot people who wander into your
flying site (so you can avoid flying over them) and who can
perform "crowd control" if people start to gather.
IMPORTANT: If you are an inexperienced modeler we
strongly urge you to seek the assistance of a competent,
experienced R/C pilot to check your model for airworthiness
AND to teach you how to fly. No matter how stable or
"forgiving" the Slinger is, attempting to learn to fly on your
own is dangerous and may result in destruction of your
model or even injury to yourself and others. Therefore, find
an instructor and fly only under his or her guidance and
supervision until you have acquired the skills necessary for
safe and fully controlled operation of your model.
Takeoff
We recommend flying the Slinger when the wind is no
greater than ten miles per hour. Less experienced flyers
should fly the Slinger only in calm (less than one mile per
hour) conditions. Frequently, winds are calm in the early
morning and early evening. Often these are the most
enjoyable times to fly anyway!
