Safety Information for MULTIPLEX model aircraft
This model is NOT A TOY in the usual sense of the term.
By operating the model the owner affirms that he is aware of the content of the operating instructions, especially
those sections which concern safety, maintenance, operating restrictions and faults, and is capable of fulfilling
these requirements.
This model must not be operated by any child under fourteen years of age. If a person below this age
operates the model under the supervision of a competent adult who is acting as the child’s guardian within
the legal sense of the term, this individual is responsible for the implementation of the information in the
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
THE MODEL AND ASSOCIATED ACCESSORIES MUST BE KEPT OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN
UNDER THREE YEARS OF AGE! MODELS CONTAIN SMALL DETACHABLE PARTS WHICH MAY BE
SWALLOWED BY CHILDREN UNDER THREE YEARS. CHOKING HAZARD!
All the warnings in the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS must be observed whenever the model is operated.
Multiplex Modellsport GmbH & Co. KG accepts no liability for loss or damage or any kind which occurs as a
result of incorrect operation or misuse of this product, including the accessories required for its operation.
This includes direct, indirect, deliberate and accidental loss and damage, and all forms of consequent damage.
Every safety note in these instructions must always be observed, as all the information contributes to the safe
operation of your model. Use your model thoughtfully and cautiously, and it will give you and your spectators
many hours of pleasure without constituting a hazard. Failure to operate your model in a responsible manner
may result in significant property damage and severe personal injury. You alone bear the responsibility for the
implementation of the operating instructions and the safety notes.
Approved usage
The model is approved exclusively for use within the modelling hobby. It is prohibited to use the model for any
other purpose than that stated. The operator of the model, and not the manufacturer, is responsible for
damage or injury of any kind resulting from non-approved use.
The model may only be operated in conjunction with those accessories which we expressly recommend. The
recommended components have undergone thorough testing, are an accurate match to the model, and
ensure that it functions safely. If you use other components, or modify the model, you operate it at your own
risk, and any claim under guarantee is invalidated.
To minimise the risk when operating the model, please observe the following points:
 The model is guided using a radio control system. No radio control system is immune to radio
interference, and such interference may result in loss of control of the model for a period of time. To
avoid collisions, you must therefore ensure at all times that there is a wide margin of safety in all
directions when operating your model. At the slightest sign of radio interference you must cease
operating your model!
 Never operate your model until you have successfully completed a thorough check of the working
systems, and carried out a range-check as stipulated in the instructions supplied with your transmitter.
 The model may only be flown in conditions of good visibility. You can avoid being temporarily blinded
by not flying towards the sun, or in other difficult light conditions.
 A model must never be operated by a person who is under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication
which have an adverse effect on visual acuity and reaction time.
 Only fly your model in conditions of wind and weather in which you are able to maintain full control of
the model. Even when the wind is light, bear in mind that turbulence can form at and around objects
which may have an effect on the model.
 Never fly in any location where you may endanger yourself of others, e.g. close to residential areas,
overhead cables, open roads and railway lines.
 Never fly towards people or animals. You may think that flying low over other people’s heads is proof of
your piloting skill, but all it does is place others at unnecessary risk. It is in all our interests that you
let other pilots know that this is what you think. Always fly in such a way that you do not endanger
yourself or others. Bear in mind that even the best RC system in the world is subject to outside
interference. No matter how many years of accident-free flying you have under your belt, you have no
idea what will happen in the next minute.
