CARE AROUND DUCTED FAN ENGINES
Ensure the Fans can spin freely. You may use a toothpick or
tweezers to clear debris out of the Ducted Fan engines. Never stick
your finger into the path of the fan blades.
CAUTION: Never place fingers or hair in or near Ducted Fan
engines. Never run Ducted Fans when examining Fan Engines,
as debris from grass or dust may get in your eyes and cause injury.
IMPORTANT – Adult Supervision is Recommended.
CHARGING YOUR JET
• Before taking your initial flight, charge the jet for a complete charge cycle on your charger.

3. Wind Conditions – Do not fly in windy conditions.
Winds may overpower the jet and make it difficult to
control.
5. When
launching
the jet, use
partial throttle.
Refrain
from using
the directional
toggle while launching the jet.
Launch the jet against the wind
and parallel to the ground.

the wind for the best take off
and flight results.
TIP: The wind will blow against
your face, if you are facing
the correct direction.
