INTRODUCTION
Stepping up in size from its smaller counterpart, the Reactor
EP, is the Reactor .46 3D ARF. Full accommodations for
brushless and glow engine power plants make this plane
builder-friendly for both types of modelers. Using either
recommended engine/motor system, the Reactor .46 3D
ARF has all the power needed to fly virtually any aerobatic
maneuver with authority. Then turn the control throws down
for some smooth pattern flying. The semi-transparent
covering with bold, contrasting accent stripes will draw
onlookers before you even get in the air!
For the latest technical updates or manual corrections to the
Reactor .46 3D ARF visit the Great Planes web site at
www.greatplanes.com. Open the "Airplanes" link, then select
the Reactor ARF. If there is new technical information or
changes to this model a "tech notice" box will appear in the
upper left corner of the page.
We urge you to join the AMA (Academy of Model
Aeronautics) and a local R/C club. The AMA is the governing
body of model aviation and membership is required to fly at
AMA clubs. Though joining the AMA provides many benefits,
one of the primary reasons to join is liability protection.
Coverage is not limited to flying at contests or on the club
field. It even applies to flying at public demonstrations and
air shows. Failure to comply with the Safety Code (excerpts
printed in the back of the manual) may endanger insurance
coverage. Additionally, training programs and instructors are
available at AMA club sites to help you get started the right
way. There are over 2,500 AMA chartered clubs across the
country. Contact the AMA at the address or toll-free phone
number below.
IMPORTANT!!! Two of the most important things you can do
to preserve the radio controlled aircraft hobby are to avoid
flying near full-scale aircraft and avoid flying near or over
groups of peple.
