When not flying the model, store the digital proportional R/C set with the

nicd battery in the discharged state. Recharge the nicd battery before the

next flight.

If a partially discharged nicd battery is recharged many times, its memory effect will reduce

the flight time substantially and may cause a crash, even if the battery is recharged.

Nicd battery electrolyte

The electrolyte in the nicd battery is a strong alkali and can cause blindness if it gets in the eyes. If you

get the electrolyte in your eyes, immediately wash your eyes with water and see a doctor. If you get the

electrolyte on your skin or clothes, it may cause a burn. Immediately wash it off with water.

CAUTION

Do not store the digital proportional R/C

set in the following places:

-Where it is very hot (40C/104F or more) or very

cold (-10C/-14F or less).

-Where the set will be exposed to direct sunlight.

-Where the humidity is high.

-Where there is strong vibration.

-Where it is dusty.

-Where there is steam and heat.

Storing the digital proportional R/C set in the places

above may cause distortion and trouble.

Nicd battery recycling

Used nicd batteries are an important resource. Stick tape over the terminals and take the used batteries

to a nicd battery recycling center.

CAUTIONS

Do not get fuel, waste oil,

etc. on plastic parts.

The plastic may melt and fail to

function.
