# First time flyer should never fly by himself / herself. Assistance from experienced flyer is absolutely necessary.
# Pre-flight adjustment must be done before flying, it is very dangerous to fly a badly pre-adjusted aircraft.
# Make sure the air field is spacious, never fly the plane too close to people and never get too close to a running
propeller.
# If you find wrinkles on the covering as a result of weather changes, you can use hot iron to remove the wrinkles.
Please begin with lower temperature setting and gradually raise the temperature until the wrinkles are gone.
Too hot an iron may damage the covering. Don't use hot iron near the seams or edges, hot iron will melt the
glue and shrink the covering at the same time, causing the seams to pull away.
# Check and re-tighten up all factory assembled screws, use thread locker if necessary.
