If a Crash Occurs
If you happen to crash and part of the foam
wing or tail breaks, it can be repaired using
packing tape to cover missing pieces.
If damage is severe or if the wing or tail is
bent, replace damaged parts immediately.
See page 32 for a complete replacement
parts list.

Warnings and Safety Checklist
1. Read and follow this manual and included
video CD completely, observing all
instructions and safety directions. If you
do not do this, serious injury and damage
can occur. Think safety first.
2. Keep propeller away from all body parts
at all times! Beware of loose clothing or
hair becoming entangled in the propeller.
3. Never fly when it is too windy or you may
lose control of the airplane. Never fly near
people, vehicles, train tracks, buildings,
power lines, water, hard surfaces, or trees,
and never attempt to catch the Firebird
Freedom.
™
4. Adult supervision is recommended for
ages 12 and under.
5. Only use a battery charger intended for
use with the Firebird Freedom battery. We
recommend using the charger that comes
with your airplane. Never leave the char-
ger unattended while charging! During
charging, place the battery and charger
on a heat-resistant surface. Do not place
them on carpet or upholstery.
6. Never cut into the battery charger or air-
plane wires, or serious injury can occur.
Causing the battery to short out (cross-
ing negative and positive bare wires) can
cause a fire, serious injury and damage.
7. Hold the plane securely, and keep all
body parts away from the propeller at all
times.
8. After you have finished flying, or at any
time you have the radio system on,
ALWAYS unplug the battery prior to turn-
ing the transmitter off. ALWAYS turn on
the transmitter prior to plugging flight
battery in.
9. Never fly on the same frequency as anoth-
er RC vehicle in your area. Doing so will
cause you, or the other person, to lose
control of the plane.
Replace wing immediately
