Quick Pre -Assembly Information

Quick Worldwide & Hobbies & Helis International:

Quick of Japan and Hobbies & Helis International teamed up to make parts 6
years ago. In the beginning, our specialty was the manufacturing of various
upgrade parts for many of the plastic helicopters on the market.
After four years of distributing numerous upgrades and crash parts for other
helicopters, we decided to develop our own line of helicopters. That's when the
notion of the Qu ick Learner was conceived. As the development of the kit began,
initial designs were approved, proto-types were made and flown - all to ensure
that the design was flawless. No minor details were over-looked. After countless
hours of hard work and dedication, Quick-World-Wide is proud to release the first
in a new standard in Helicopters - the Quick Learner.

Warning:

The radio-controlled model helicopter contained in this kit is not a toy.
Rather, it is a sophisticated piece of equipment. This Product is not
recommended for use by children, without adult supervision. Radio controlled
models such as this, are capable of causing both property damage and/or bodily
harm to both the operator/assembler and/or spectator if not properly assembled
and operated. Hobbies & Helis assumes no liability for damage that could occur
from the assembly and/or use/misuse of this product.

AMA:

We strongly encourage all prospective and current R/C aircraft pilots to join the
Academy of Model Aeronautics. The AMA is a non-profit organization that
provides services to model aircraft pilots. As an AMA member, you will receive a
monthly magazine entitled Model Aviation, as well as a liability insurance plan to
cover against possible accident or injury. All AMA charter aircraft clubs require
individuals to hold a current AMA sporting license prior to the operation of their
model.

Pre-Assembly Information:

Quick Helicopters are put together with care and quality topping our priority list. A
recommendation when you are ready to begin building this model is that you
examine the kit and understand the contents of the packages and read
thoroughly before starting the assembly process. Purchase a parts box for all the
nuts, bolts, and other small parts. We take great care to ensure all parts are in
the box.

Quickie .15 Features

Quality Black G-10 Frames. These frames are not only rigid but will
provide excellent vibration absorption.

2. Hex Start Shaft System: Allows the helicopter to be started with a
regular start shaft. Kit can also be fitted with a pull-start.

of setup with fewer moving parts. EMS constitutes overall design
simplicity and represents the future of helicopter technology.

Radio Requirements

Radios:

Hobbies & Helis & its distributors carry various lines of helicopter radios. Any radio that
supports EMS/CCPM Mixing will work fine. We recommend using an eight-channel or better
radio, although a six channel radio is all that is required.

Servos:

This is the single most important function of the helicopter. Any sport servo will offer
plate. Higher speed servo is recommended for tail, but not required.

Introduction:

Please read through the entire manual before starting your construction of the Quickie. If
there are any questions or concerns regarding the assembly of the helicopter you can call
Hobbies & Helis International (610)-282-4811 or Email the any of the following techs.

Threadlocker Warning (Very Important):

This is a general warning about the use of threadlocker and its importance. Threadlocker
must be used anywhere that a metal fastener i.e. (M2, M3, M4 Cap Head Bolts, Set Screws
etc.) are threaded into a metal part i.e. (Bearing Blocks, Cross-members, etc.). The failure to
use threadlocker can result in parts falling a part and possible loss of control of the model,

bolts, even with the use of threadlocker can come loose from vibration in the helicopter.
