● Make sure that the transmitter and receiver are both switched off

and the battery is disconnected when you are not ﬂ ying.

● Do not attempt to disassemble any of the airplane's components or

allow them to get wet. Electrical damage may occur.

● Never ﬂ y your airplane from roadways or after dark.

● When operating/ﬂ ying, always be aware of the spinning propeller.

Be careful not to let it come close to your body, other people or

loose clothing.

● Keep spectators behind you when ﬂ ying.

● Since your airplane is controlled by a radio link, it is very

important to always use fresh alkaline batteries in the transmitter.

We recommend Megatech's Golden Power series, designed for

R/C products.

● Before ﬂ ying, make sure you perform a range check and can

maintain control at least 25 feet from transmitter to model with the

transmitter antenna collapsed. Do not ﬂ y your airplane if

other models are being operated on the same frequency in the area.

If you are at a ﬁ eld with other pilots, NEVER TURN ON YOUR

TRANSMITTER OR RECEIVER without ﬁ rst conﬁ rming that

there are no other models in the air on the same radio frequency.

Talk to the other pilots and make sure that they are aware of what

frequency you are using.

● Do not use solvents or liquid cleaners to clean this model. Doing

so may damage the plane. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning.

Now it's time to describe how you can become a successful R/C pilot with

the Freedom Flyer. A little patience and care exhibited here will result in a

well-ﬂ ying, long-lasting aircraft.

Did you "cycle" the battery pack as previously described on page 10? This

is extremely important!

Perform these pre-ﬂ ight checks each time you ﬂ y:

● Is the wing properly aligned and attached securely to the fuselage?

● Are both transmitter LED lights glowing?

● Is the transmitter switched on prior to installing the battery pack?

● Do the rudder and elevator controls work properly after turning on the

transmitter?
