  • Page 6: Needed To Complete

    Needed to Complete The Optim 80 CP RTF includes everything needed to fly right out of the box. There’s nothing extra to buy or provide! LiPo Battery Warnings IMPORTANT NOTE: Lithium Polymer batteries are significantly more volatile than the alkaline, NiCd or NiMH batteries also used in RC applications.
  • Page 7 • You MUST charge the LiPo battery in a safe area away from flammable materials. • NEVER charge the LiPo battery unattended at any time. When charging the battery you should ALWAYS remain in constant observation to monitor the charging process and react immediately to any potential problems that may occur.
