Building Instructions - GRAUPNER DISCUS 2CT Building Instructions

BUILDING INSTRUCTIONS

Please be sure to read and observe the following safety notes.
If you ever dispose of the model, it is important to pass on the complete building
instructions, including Safety Notes, to the new owner.
Safety Notes
You must have valid third-party insurance which covers the hazards involved in model
flying; this is now a legal requirement.
Before you start assembling the aircraft, please read right through these instructions
attentively. You alone are responsible for the safe operation of your radio-controlled
model. Young persons should only be permitted to build and fly this model under the
instruction and supervision of an adult who is aware of the requirements and potential
hazards involved in this activity.
In legal terms our models are classed as aircraft, and as such are subject to legal
regulations and restrictions which must be observed at all times. Our brochure
"Modellflugrecht, Paragrafen und mehr" (Model Aviation Law, Legal Requirements and
more) is available under Order No. 8034.02, and contains a summary of all these rules.
Your local model shop should have a copy which you can read. There are also Post
Office regulations concerning your radio control system, and these must be observed.
Refer to your RC system instructions for more details.
Be sure to use only those parts included in the kit, together with other genuine
Graupner accessories and replacement parts as recommended expressly by us. Even
if you change a single component you can no longer be sure that the system will work
reliably, and such changes also invalidate your guarantee.
Avoid short-circuits and reversed polarity in all electrical circuits.
The high energy density of rechargeable batteries involves a risk of fire and even
explosion.
A radio-controlled model aircraft can only work properly and fulfil your expectations if
it is built very carefully and in accordance with the building instructions. If you wish to
avoid injuring people and damaging property it is essential to be careful and
painstaking at all stages of building and operating your model. Nobody would climb
into a full-size sailplane and try to fly it without undergoing training beforehand, and
model flying is a skill which needs to be learned in just the same way.
As manufacturers we are not in a position to influence the way you build and operate
your RC model aircraft, and for this reason we deny all liability. All we can do is
expressly point out the hazards involved in this activity.
We suggest that you ask an experienced model flyer for help, or join a model club or
flight training school. Your local model shop and the specialist magazines are
excellent sources of information. If at all possible, it is always best to join a club and
fly at the approved model flying site.
Adhesives and paints contain solvents which may be hazardous to health under
certain circumstances. Read and observe the notes and warnings supplied by the
manufacturer of these materials.
