Safety Precautions
•
Read and follow this manual completely, observing all instructions and safety directions. Otherwise, serious injury and damage can occur.
Think about your safety, and the safety of others, first.
•
Hold the product securely when the flight battery is plugged in, keep the rotor away from body parts and clothing, even it isn't spinning, as
it could be turned on by accident. Beware of hair becoming entangled in the rotor.
•
Do not fly when it's too windy or you may lose control and crash, causing injury or damage. Never fly near people, vehicles, train tracks,
buildings, power lines, water, hard surfaces or trees. Never allow anyone to attempt to catch the model while it's in flight or serious injury
may result.
•
Adult supervision for flying and battery charging is recommended for pilots age 14 and younger.
•
Only use a battery charger that is compatible with the flight battery. Never leave the charger unattended while charging. This will help
prevent overcharging and make sure damage does not occur to the battery, charger or any other property. While charging, place the
battery on a heat-resistant surface. Do not lay it on carpet or upholstery while charging.
•
Never cut into the battery, charger, or aeroplane wires or serious injury may occur. Causing the battery to "short out" (crossing negative

•
Always check that the transmitter has full control of the model before flying.
