General safety notices
The RC aircraft is suitable for youths of 14 years or older, however it is not
suitable for beginners.
Liability insurance which is in force is required to operate model aircraft. This
is required by legal statute.
The entire operating instructions must be carefully read before attempting to
put the model into operation for the first time. You are solely responsible for
the safe operation of your RC model aircraft. Youths who operate the model
must be responsibly supervised by an adult who is familiar with the
circumstances and potential hazards involved with RC model aircraft.
From a legal point of view, a model aircraft is an aircraft and, as such, subject
to respective laws that must absolutely be observed. The pamphlet »Model
aviation law"«, order no. 8034.02, presents a summary of these laws. This
pamphlet can also be reviewed at dealerships.
Only those parts included in the kit as well as those replacement parts which
we expressly recommend may be used. If a component in the drive unit is
changed, safe operation is no longer warranted and all rights under the
guarantee are voided.
Always keep the necessary safe distance between the flying model and
persons or obstacles; never fly over or toward other persons!
Model flying activity may only be pursued when outdoor temperatures are
between -5 C and +35 C. Extreme temperatures lead to degrading changes
in battery capacity and material characteristics.
Every model pilot is to behave such that public safety, in particular other
persons and property, are neither endangered nor disturbed.
Never fly the model aircraft in the vicinity of high-voltage transmission lines,
industrial premises, residential areas, public streets, school yards or
playgrounds and the like.
If you are a novice to model flying, it is advantageous to have an experienced
helper at your side during the checks and the first few flights.
Motor-driven propellers present a constant injury hazard. They may never
come into contact with any body part! A rapidly turning aircraft propeller can,
for example, sever a finger!
A blockage of the propeller by any kind of part must be precluded.
The model's flying attitude must always be explicitly recognizable during the
entire flight in order to ensure secure control and maneuvers. If functional
impairments or disturbances become evident during a flight, a landing must be
initiated immediately for reasons of safety. You must always avoid other
