mini Titan E325 SE
-1-

IN TRODU CT ION
The E325 SE comes complete with all metal CNC rotor head and tail rotor push
pull linkage. One piece battery tray that is light and makes assembly quick and
easy. For improved tail rotor control metal tail drive gears and pulleys have all
been combined to make this E325 the pinnacle of micro electric helicopters. E325
SE combines form and function, making it the best choice of all out micro electric
3D fun!
NOTICE
1.R/C models are not toys. This product is a high-precision flying machine.
Possibilities of unexpected crashes may occur due to electronic interference,
incorrect operation, or poor mechanical maintenance. Although it is a small-
sized helicopter, the rotor blades rotate at high speeds, which may cause serious
damage, injury, or death if the model hits people or property. Therefore, extreme
caution must be exercised during operation.
2.Thunder Tiger ensures parts packaged in this product is of the highest quality.
However, after assembly and usage, parts damaged due to wear or misuse will
not be replaced under any circumstances. If you have any questions regarding
its operation and repair, Thunder Tigers service agents are able to provide free
technical guidance.
3.This product is only recommended for users ages 16 and up. Because flying
a R/C helicopter is difficult, beginners must receive guidance and supervision
from experienced pilots to minimize unexpected danger. Practice in spacious
areas, far away from obstacles such as buildings, trees, electrical towers, or
crowds.
4.To decrease the cost of repair and maintenance for beginners, it is recommended
to fly the helicopter with a practice rack and to learn basic flying skills with a
computer R/C flying simulator. (Crashes in simulators are free to repair!)
AMA I NFORMATION
Operating a model helicopter requires a high degree of responsibility and skill. If
you are a newcomer to the hobby, it is best to seek help and guidance from
accomplished model helicopter pilots. This will greatly speed up the learning
process and have you flying successfully in a reasonable amount of time. We
also would strongly urge you to join the Academy of Model Aeronautics. The AMA
is a non-profit organization that provides its members with a liability insurance plan
as well as monthly magazine entitled Model Aviation. All AMA charter aircraft
clubs require all pilots to hold a current AMA sporting license prior to operation
of their models at club fields. For further information, contact the AMA at:

FLI GH T SAFET Y CH ECK LI ST
1.Make sure that the transmitter battery is fully charged before flying.
2.Make sure all control surfaces are operated properly before flying.
3.Do a range check of the radio before the first flight. The electronic equipment
must operate properly at a range of at least 15 meters (50 ft) even with the
transmitter antenna collapsed.
4.Make sure there are no other pilots using the same radio frequency with yours
and that there are no other radio interference on your frequency.
5.Be sure to turn on the transmitter first with the throttle stick in the idle position.
Plug the battery into the ESC last.
6.The main rotor and the tail rotor spin at very high RPM. Make sure nothing can
come in contact with the rotor blades during flight.
7.Always maintain a safe distance from the helicopter during flight.
8.Never fly the helicopter in the rain or in excessive wind conditions.
9.Always operate and fly the helicopter in a safe and responsible manner.
10.Never fly the helicopter over other pilots, spectators, cars or anything that could
result in injury or property damage.
POST FLI GH T IN SPECT ION
1.Inspect the model thoroughly to insure no parts have come loose or become
damaged during the flight and landing. Replace damaged parts and tighten loose
screws before flying again.
2.Clean the helicopter body.
3.Lubricate all moving parts to ensure smooth operation for the next flying.
4.Replace any worn ball links and damaged bearings.
5.Store the model in a cool, dry place. Avoid putting it under direct sunlight or
near a source of heat.
Following these simple rules will allow you to enjoy the thrill of model helicopter
flying for many years.
CAUT ION
When the model has crashed, inspect the flybar, rotor shaft and the blade spindle
to make sure they are not bent. If any item is damaged, it must be replaced with
a new part to ensure safe operation. Do not glue any broken or damaged plastic
parts. Do not repair broken rotor blades. It is very important to inspect the motor,
speed control and the battery.
