Product Usage Instructions
- Pre-Flight Checks:
- Check and adjust servo centering to optimize control surface
performance. - Double-check the spinning direction of the motor before first
usage to ensure it is suitable for your model. - Set the center of gravity (CG) at the position marked in the
manual. If necessary, add weight to the nose or tail for optimal
flight performance. - Check the inside of the fuselage to ensure all equipment is
correctly connected and secure. Verify the surface of the
heat-shrink covering material and tighten all screws and
bolts. - Take care when connecting/disconnecting the battery. Replace
the battery immediately if low voltage or damage is detected. - The connection of internal devices in the fuselage depends on
your transmitter-receiver device. Simplify the connection based on
your device’s features. Refer to your device’s manual for
details. - When pairing the power system and transmitter-receiver device
for the first time, set the maximum stroke of the throttle as
required.
- Check and adjust servo centering to optimize control surface
- Safety Precautions:
- This product is not a toy and should be operated responsibly.
Improper usage can cause injury to you or your family members.
Children under the age of 14 should be accompanied by an adult
while operating this product. - Avoid flying around restricted locations such as airports,

interference is present. - Always turn on the transmitter before the receiver and turn off
the receiver before the transmitter. - If you are a beginner, seek assistance or advice from advanced
expert fliers before attempting to fly the model. - Keep relevant items out of reach of children.
- If engaging in high-stress flying, take necessary steps to
control movement range and reinforce the body strength of the
airplane. - Some parts of this product may cause discomfort to the eyes and
skin. Use goggles or dust-proof clothes when necessary. - The glue mentioned in the manual may not be included due to air
traffic safety control. Purchase the required glue from a local
stationery store.

PRE-FLIGHT CHECKS
Check/adjust servo centering, in order to adjust the control surface better.
Double-check the spinning direction of motor at first usage, and sure it’s suitable for your model.
CG Set the center of gravity (CG) at the position that manual already marked out. If necessary, add weight to the nose or tail to ensure the best flight performance.
Double-check the inside of the fuselage, make sure all the equipments are correctly connected; Check the heat-shrink covering material’s surface, Make certain all screws, bolts, cabin and canopy remain secure.
Take great care when connecting/disconnecting the battery, pls replace the battery immediately once found low voltage or damage to battery.
The way the internal devices of the fuselage are connected will be related to your transmitter-receiver device. For those transmitter-receiver devices with more functions, you can simplify the connection of the internal devices of the fuselage. Check your device for details to see if it meets the features you need.
When the power system and transmitter-receiver device are paired for the first time, you may need to set the maximum stroke of the throttle. Please set it yourself.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
14 This product should not be considered a toy, but rather a complicated and sophisticated flying model. Your safety depends on how you use and fly it, If not correctly operated, could cause injury to you or your family members. Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times if operating this product. Not suitable for children under the age of 14. THIS IS NOT A TOY.

You will need to range check the transmitter to be sure you are not experiencing any interference.
Always turn on the receiver last after turning on the transmitter and shut off the receiver first before turning off the transmitter.
If you are only a beginner to the radio control model flying, do not attempt to fly your model without any assistance or advice from advanced expert fliers.
Keep relevant items out of reach of children.
This product has been flight tested to meet or exceed our rigid performance and reliability standards in normal use,if you plan to perform any high-stress flying, you are solely responsible for taking any and all necessary steps to control movement range and reinforce the body strength.
This product may include some fiberglass and carbon-fiber reinforced plastic parts,which may cause eye and skin discomfort,pls wear the goggles or dust-proof clothes when needed.
Due to air traffic safety control, the products you receive may not have the glue that appears in the list. Please understand and purchase the glue you need at your local stationery store.
