2. Remove the battery pack from the box. Plug the
battery pack into the charger connector. Be careful -
the battery pack will plug in only one way.
3. Allow the battery to charge for 3 hours using the
wall charger. A completely discharged battery may
require a longer charge time.
4. IMPORTANT! NEVER LEAVE A CHARGING
BATTERY UNATTENDED.
5. During charging, feel the battery to see if it is
starting to warm up. A warmed up (but not hot)
battery pack is a sign that it is fully charged. Once the
pack is warm, disconnect it from the charger.
Depending on how much charge was already in the
pack, you may have to disconnect the battery early.
6. After each flight, remove the battery pack from the
Skysailer and allow it to cool completely
before recharging.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR
CHARGING BATTERIES
1. Never leave a charging battery unattended.
2 Never let the battery charge until it feels hot. A hot
battery is an overcharged battery. Only let the battery
get warm to the touch.
3. If you ever use a different battery charger, charge
this battery pack only at a maximum charge rate of ½
amp. A higher charge rate will charge the battery
pack too quickly and heat up the wires.
4. A properly cared for battery pack will last a long
time. If the battery pack is continually overcharged or
charged at too high of a rate, the life of the battery
pack will be shortened.

INSTALL THE TRANSMITTER BATTERIES

The transmitter that controls your airplane requires
power, in the form of eight "AA" batteries. To install
the batteries, remove the battery hatch on the front of
the transmitter and install the batteries following the
diagram inside the battery compartment. Switch on
the transmitter and check the LED's on the front of the
transmitter. If both the red and green lights are on, it
is safe to fly. If only the red light is on, you need to
install fresh batteries.
While the battery hatch is removed, check that the
two servo reversing switches are set to REV.
