Flying Safety
To ensure your own safety and the safety of others, please observe the following precautions:
Flying field
We recommend that you fly at a recognized model airplane flying field.
You can find model clubs and fields by asking the nearest hobby dealer, or contacting the Academy of
Model Aeronautics.
Always pay particular attention to the flying field's rules, as well as the presence and location of
spectators, the wind direction, and any obstacles on the field.
Be very careful flying in areas near power lines, tall buildings, or communication facilities as there may
be radio interference in their vicinity.
Once you arrive at the flying field...
- Before you fly, perform a range check to confirm your radio system is responding correctly.
- To do a range check, Power-up the aircraft and either ask a friend to help hold the aircraft or secure
it somehow.
- Walk away from the aircraft until the aircraft "glitches" or you notice intermittent control loss.
- Walk back to the aircraft, pacing out the distance.
