ATTENTION:

local laws, it may be illegal to dispose of this battery

into the municipal waste stream. Check with your

local solid waste officials for details in your area for

recycling options or proper disposal.

To use your R/C set safely, please observe the following pre-

cautions:

(Operating precautions)

[!] When powering up the system, first turn on the transmitter

power, then turn on receiver power. When powering down

the system, first turn off the receiver power, then turn off the

transmitter power. If the power is turned on or off in the re-

verse order the control servos may move erratically causing

engines or electric motors to race unexpectedly and possibly

resulting in serious injury to the user or bystanders. Before

turning on the power, set the throttle stick to the maximum

slow position.

[!] Extend the transmitter antenna to its full length. If the antenna

is not extended fully, the transmitter output will drop and the

range of receivable transmission will be shortened.

[!] Never fly two or more models on the same frequency at the

same time. Before flight, use a frequency monitor or other

device to check that the frequency is not in use. Simulta-

neous flight on the same band is extremely dangerous be-

cause it will cause interference and loss of control. Differ-

ences in modulation method or signal format (AM, FM, PCM,

etc.) does not mean that flights can be made on the same

band.

[!] Do not forget to recharge the Nicd battery before each flight.

Needless to say, a dead battery will cause loss of control and

a crash. Always check the discharge time on the ground and

provide a margin of safety when determining the remaining

flight time. When recharging the Nicd battery, observe the

charging current and charging time specified on the battery.

Charging the battery at a current and time exceeding the

specified values will not only damage the battery by over-

charging, but will also cause overheating and other danger-

ous conditions.
