General
• Read the Operating Manual carefully and keep it for future
reference.
• Make yourself familiar with all the instructions for flight
operation.
This model is not a toy!
• This radio controlled model is not a toy. Learning how to
control it correctly is a gradual process.
• Children under 14 years of age should be supervised by an
adult.
If you are not yet proficient with model aircraft, we suggest you
approach a more experienced model pilot or a model-making
club about making your first flight attempts.
Flying a radio controlled helicopter is a fascinating hobby.
However, it has to be practised with the necessary caution and
respect.
A radio controlled model can cause damage and injury and the
user is liable for any such incident. Make sure that you have
sufficient insurance cover when practising your hobby.
Preparations
Never start flying before you have made
sure of the following points:
• Pay attention to visible damage on the model, remote
control, battery charger, and lithium-polymer battery.
• Ensure that the model is functioning correctly and that all
nuts, bolts and screws are properly tightened
• Batteries for transmitter and receiver are well charged and of
the correct voltage
Flight operation
The model is primarily conceived for indoor flights since its
own slight weight and instable flight position resulting from the
construction type make it very susceptible to air movements.
Moreover the components are not dust- and moisture-proof.

Only a well maintained model will function in a correct manner.
Only use approved spare parts and never improvise with any
unsuitable items.
It is the user's responsibility to ensure that the model is
functioning correctly and that all nuts, bolts and screws are

Keep the model well beyond the reach of small children. They
may unintentionally activate the model and cause themselves
injury with it, or they may put batteries and small parts into their
mouths and swallow or choke on them.

the transmitter.
• Always check the radio operation before starting the
helicopter.

charging!
Afterwards the motor must cool down for at least 5 minutes.
Then recharge the battery. Avoid low discharge in any case.
Lay the antenna wire in such a way that it cannot get into
movable parts. Ensure for traction relief by fixing the wire to a
location on the fuselage with adhesive tape.
