Before each flight check that all parts are properly fixed.
The model must always be held in such a way that the propeller is free to
rotate, as it is capable of inflicting injury.
Always switch the transmitter on first, and only then the receiver.
Always switch the receiver off first, and only then the transmitter.
If you neglect this sequence, i.e. if at any time the receiver is switched on when
the transmitter is at "OFF", the receiver will be completely open to other
transmitters, interference etc., and this could cause the motor to burst into life
unexpectedly.
Before every flight ensure that the remote control system is working properly and has
adequate range. This means checking that the transmitter controls the model's
functions at a reasonable range on the ground.
Batteries
Never use faulty or damaged cells or batteries consisting of different cell types,
mixtures of old and new cells, or cells of different makes.
Exhausted and faulty dry or rechargeable cells must not be discarded in the
household waste. Take old batteries back to your model shop, or to your nearest
specialist toxic waste disposal centre.
