2. Never fly the model in crowded areas where there are lots of people, automobiles on the
road or power lines overhead. Do not fly near full-scale airports.

rate of speed and cover a lot of area quickly. Initial flights should be made in an area
with a minimum size of a football field.
4. This model is not recommended for children under the age of 14.
5. When charging the LiPo batteries, always charge them on a non-flammable surface and
monitor the charge process. Improper charging of LiPo batteries is dangerous and can
lead to a fire!
6. The Rebel 70 is made from EPO foam and plastic. These materials are flammable and
can be damaged by high heat. Never leave your jet near a heat source or in an
automobile.
7. Do not attempt to catch your airplane while flying.
8. Never leave your Rebel 70 unattended when ready for flight.

throttle is in the off position prior to plugging in the flight battery. Failure to follow this
step may lead to unintended motor start and damage to the model.
