Preparing for the First Flight
Flying Checklist
While the 1S 3.7V DC Lithium Polymer Battery Charger (PKZ3240)
included with your Sukhoi has been specifically designed to safely
charge the included 1S 3.7V 110mAh Li-Po Battery (PKZ1034), you
MUST read the following safety instructions and warnings before
handling, charging or using the Li-Po battery.
Note: Li-Po batteries are significantly more volatile than
the alkaline, NiCd or NiMH batteries used in RC
applications. All instructions and warnings must be
followed exactly. Mishandling of Li-Po batteries can result
in fire.
By handling, charging or using the included Li-Po battery you assume
all risks associated with lithium batteries. If you do not agree with
these conditions, return your complete Sukhoi model in new, unused
condition to the place of purchase immediately.
• You must charge the included 1S 3.7V 110mAh Li-Po battery in a safe
area away from flammable materials.
• Never charge the battery unattended. When charging the battery you
should always remain in constant observation to monitor the charging
process and react to potential problems that may occur.
• After flight, the battery must be cooled to ambient temperature
before charging.
• You MUST use the included 1S 3.7V DC Li-Po Battery Charger
(PKZ3240). Failure to do so may result in a fire causing personal
injury and/or property damage. You can use the E-flite Celectra
4-Port Charger (EFLC1004) to safely charge the 3.7V battery
pack as well. DO NOT use a NiCd or NiMH charger.
