Note: Cut out the stickers and apply them in the proper area. Do not peel the backing paper off all at once.
Peel off one corner of the backing and cut off with scissors. Arrange sticker on model and when satisfied
adhere the corner without backing.
Carefully peel back the rest of the backing while at the same time adhering the rest of the sticker.
Try not to make air bubbles, if there are some, carefully puncture sticker (center of bubble) but not model
surface with the tip of the knife or sharp pin and squeeze out the air. At curves stretch sticker and apply a little
heat so that no ceases occur. Cut off the excess that is produced.

Technische Anderungen und Irrtumer

BEFORE FLYING CHECK EVERYTHING
Before each flight, inspect the airplane for any loose parts. Check the hinges, make sure the pushrods are still firmly
attached, and check the engine mounting bolts. In general, check everything on the plane that might possibly come
loose.
CHECK THE FREQUENCE BEFORE FLYING
DO NOT FLY NEAR A POWER LINE
The power lines cause radio interference, so avoid flying near them.
Adjust the engine always from behind, but never from infront or the sides as rotating propeller may badly injure you!
Do not allow watching people to get too close to a rotating propeller.
Ensure the spinner and propeller are securely attached. Immediately disure defective propeller as well as deformed
spinners.
Be sure to keep an adequate supply of fuel in the tank. Don’t continue to fly the model until the tank is drained dry.
Never fly directly over people or fly directly towards people.
This model is highly pre-fabricated and can be built in a very short time. However, the work which you have to carry
out is important and must be done carefully. The model will only be strong and fly well if you complete your tasks
competently - so please work slowly and accurately.
SAFETY NOTES AND WARNINGS RELATING TO MODEL AIRCRAFT POWERED BY GLOWPLUG ENGINE
Always take off and landing your airplane into the wind.
Fully extend the transmitter and receiver antenna.
Switch off the transmitter and receiver after landing.
Ensure the airfield is spacious enough.
WARNING !
Do not put in a large-than recommended engine. A bigger engine does not necessarily mean better performance.
IMPORTANT: Please do not clean your model with pure alcohol, only use liquid soap with water or use glass cleaner
to clean on surface of your model to keep the colour not fade.
