Switch Plane Off!
-Push the power switch on the underside of the plane to the off position.
-Always remember to shut your plane "OFF" whenever it is being charged, or not in use. CAUTION:
Never turn "ON" the plane when the transmitter is "OFF"!
Battery Installation.

Never attempt the Motor Check and Radio Range-Check Pre Flight without the help of a friend or parent. Do not try these tests alone as the aircraft propellers could cause injury if they come in contact with your fingers while running. Also the aircraft could actually take off causing damage to the plane's structure.
-Be sure to operate and fly your aircraft only under adult supervision.
-Keep Clear of the propeller blades!
-Do not fly near cars, people, pets, overhead wires, bodies of water, buildings, trees, etc. -Use common sense!

-Hold the controller in pour left hand and the plane in your night hand.
-Tum so that you are facing into the wind.
-Push the leff throttle stick forward all the way so that both motors are running.
-Gently toss the plane at an upwards angle of about 20-30 degrees. Do not throw the plane too hard or the motors may stall. Use about the same force as you would throwing a dart at a dart board.
-Keep the throttle on until you reach a safe altitude of about 40ft.
| nasa TH q Lea A eee BT AE ee ieee ne Troubleshooting: General Tips Slow Motors: . If your electric motors seem to be turning too slowly put a single drop of oil down into the motor, along the shatt that drives the propeller. Do not use more oil - a little bit is enough. Slow Climb/Ascent:
If your plane will not climb when both motors are running, it's possible that the wings warped a bit during shipping, causing the plane to dive. To fix this, you could try taking a hair dryer and very carefully heating the rear of the wingtips a bit, then twisting them upwards (at the back). Do not overdo it - only a little bit of heat and a little bit of twist is enough. This will cause the aircraft to climb assuming that the props are getting enough power. Note that the tips must be twisted equally or the plane will tend to turn in one direction. Unwanted Turns/Slow Turns:
Awarp in your airframe / wing may also cause the airplane fo veer in one direction. You can remove the warp by doing the following: Carefully heat the wings with a hair dryer being very careful not to heat the foam too much and cause it to melt. Keep the hairdryer about a foot away and keep it moving. After a short time the foam will become somewhat pliable and you will be able to gently twist the wing to remove any warping that might have been be put into it during shipping. ote that you only need to give it a slight twist - dont overdo it or you'll end up with a plane that turns in the opposite direction from the original direction. Hold the airplane by the wingtips with the nose pointed away from you.
- If the plane was veering to the left then (slightly) twist the right tip up and the left tip down.
- If the plane was veering to the right then (slightly) twist the left tio up and the right tip down.

-Turn the plane into the wind and aim it at the landing area.
-Allow the plane to gently descend by pulsing the power
(left stick) on and oif to achieve a gentle descent rate.
-If a tum is needed, use only gentle pulsing of the right-hand transmitter stick.
-Try to avoid tuming the plane when it is within 10ff. of the ground.
-The plane will essentially land itself once you achieve a smooth descent rate.
-Just before touchdown to level it out and allow if to land at a flat angle. CAUTION: When landing the plane be sure to land up-wind
(into the wind) and aim for a soft, flat grassy area!
vying Tips
- IF you apply full throttle for too long, the pane may nose up too much and stall. To overcome this, back off the throttle when the plane gets to a greater than 30 degree nose-up angle. Let it glide for a moment then apply throttle again. If the nose goes too high and the plane stalls (stops flying and the nose drops s aip) /), do not hold the power on release it immediately. If you hold the throttle on in this case, the plane will accelerate downwards since it is in a nose-down attitude and will dive into the ground, However, if you release the throttle, the plane will straighten out (assuming you have sufficient altitude) and you will regain control.
- If you have held a turn input for too long or the plane has been caught be a crosswind and has started to tum too sharply
(into a spiral dive), immediately push the right-hand steering Stick in the other direction to force the plane to tum the other way. Do NOT apply power to both motors with the left-hand stick -
use the right-hand stick only until you regain control.
- Always try to keep the plane at a safe altitude to allow recovery altitude - 50 feet should be enough to give you and the plane time to react. give the plane a short burst of power isit our web site: www.interactivetoy.com Replacement Parts, if you need fo, you can order replacement parts directly from us via telephone or email Please call (416) 444-6873 or send an email to info@interactivetoy.com Warranty Interactive Toy Concepts guarantees your RIC plane to be free from manufacturing defects.
