Preparing for the First Flight
Flying Checklist
While the 1S 3.7V DC Lithium Polymer Battery Charger (PKZ3240)
included with your P-51D has been specifically designed to safely
charge the included 1S 3.7V 120mAh 14C Li-Po Battery (PKZ1035),
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 P-51D model in new, unused
condition to the place of purchase immediately.
• You must charge the included 1S 3.7V 120mAh 14C 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.
