Overview; Introduction - Eagle Tree Systems Vector User Manual


RC models and accessories are not toys! The Vector should not be used by children.

You should always use a spotter if your eyes are not on your model. For USA customers, please refer
to the Academy of Model Aeronautics Safety Code at
FPV related code at

Always obey the law when flying. Most video transmitters used for FPV flying require an amateur
radio license to operate legally.

If you have never set up or operated an RC model before, you will need help from an experienced
modeler. Local RC clubs are great ways to meet experienced modelers, and receive the required
training. This requirement is especially true for FPV flying, which can be more challenging.

Never operate your model aircraft near or over buildings, power/telephone lines, or other obstacles.
Never operate your model aircraft near or over people or animals! Never operate your model after
consuming drugs or alcohol!

Never operate your model within 5 miles of airports, without permission from the airport!

Never operate the Vector in a situation where it may get wet, such as on a rainy day.

Do not change wiring in your model when any power is applied.
