Advice on Flying
1) Do not fly in gusty, low-visibility, or rainy weather;
2) Do not fly close to people, buildings, or high-voltage power lines;
3) Make sure that your radio equipment works as intended, your control surfaces turn in
the right directions, and your batteries are properly charged;
4) If you are inexperienced in RC flying, have someone experienced to help you;
5) Please remember that you are the one who is responsible for all aspects of your model
plane flying. Your flying enjoyment relies on safe flying.
EPP Plane Maintenance

temperature in your vehicle can damage your EPP plane.
2) Do not expose your EPP plane to the sun for a long time on sunny days.
3) The best way to store your EPP plane is to hang it vertically in room temperature.
