The Weekender EHawkeye is a radio control model plane designed for novice pilots over the
age of 14. Improper assembly or user negligence can lead to serious injury and/or property
damage to yourself or others. Weekender is not responsible for any damages or injuries caused
by the user’s negligence or improper assembly of the model. Be sure to read the instruction
manual thoroughly before assembling and flying the model.
Safety is of the utmost importance when flying any model aircraft. Third party insurance is
mandatory. If you join a model club or association, suitable coverage will usually be available
through the organization. It is your personal responsibility to ensure that your insurance is
adequate (i.e. that its coverage includes powered model aircraft). Always fly in such a way that
you do not endanger yourself or others. Bear in mind that even the best RC systems are subject
to outside interference. No matter how many years of accident-free flying you have, there is
always the possibility of an unforeseen problem or error that can cause an accident. Make it
your job to keep your models and your radio control system in perfect operating condition at
all times. Check and observe the correct charging procedure for the batteries you are using.
Before every flight, check that the wings and the tail panels are attached and firmly
seated. Also check to make sure that each control surface is operating correctly.
