high power and it needs to be handled carefully to avoid
serious injury. Both the Brushless motor installation and

producing injury at any throttle setting.
• Make sure when doing these installations that the radio
system is set to the lowest throttle setting at all times.
• Do not plug in the motor battery to the motor ESC at any
point until directed to do so.
• Under no circumstances should the radio system in the
airplane be switched on before the transmitter is
switched on.
• Do not plug the battery in the airplane to the ESC until the
transmitter is on and transmitting and throttle is at idle.
• Never stand or have any part of your body near the
propeller when the motor battery is connected.
• Watch out for loose clothing or other objects in the path
of the propeller.
• Securely hold the model when testing the motor.
• Always test the motor outdoors. Never turn on the
motor indoors.
• Exercise extreme caution when handling the model
with the propeller on.
