Flying Precautions
WARNING
Never grasp the transmitter antenna while
flying.
■ The transmitter output may drop drastically.
Always make sure that all transmitter stick
movements operate all channels properly in the
model prior to flight. Also, make sure that all
switches, etc. function properly as well. If there
are any difficulties, do not use the system until all
inputs are functioning properly.
Never fly in the range check mode.
■ In the dedicated range test range check mode, the
transmitter output range is reduced and may cause a
crash.
While operating, never touch the transmitter
with, or bring the transmitter near, another
transmitter, a cellphone, or other wireless
devices.
■ Doing so may cause erroneous operation.
Do not point the antenna directly toward the
aircraft during flight.
Precautions
= Prohibited
= Mandatory
■ The antenna is directional and the transmitter output
is weakest. (The strength of the radio waves is greatest
from the sides of the antenna.)
Never fly on a rainy day, when the wind is
strong, and at night.
■ Water could lead to failure or improper functionality
and poor control of the aircraft which could lead to a
crash.
Never turn the power switch on and off during
flight or while the engine or motor is running.
■ Operation will become impossible and the aircraft
will crash. Even if the power switch is turned on,
operation will not begin until transmitter and receiver
internal processing is complete.
Do not fly when you are physically impaired
as it could pose a safety hazard to yourself or
others.
Do not touch the engine, motor, or motor
controller during and immediately after use.
■ These items may become hot during use.
