WARNING: The radio
controlled model helicopter built from this conversion kit is not a toy and
is not meant for children. It is a flying machine capable of causing
property damage and serious bodily harm to both the operator/assembler
and/or spectator if not built and operated correctly and responsibly.
Rotating components, especially the main rotor blades, are an ever-present
danger. Model helicopters operate differently than model cars and airplanes.
Helicopters by their nature are not positively stable, meaning that even if
properly assembled and adjusted, helicopters will not recover from an
unwanted flight attitude, nor will they hold any particular orientation
without constant control inputs from the pilot.
IT IS YOUR EXCLUSIVE RESPONSIBILITY TO PROPERLY BUILD,
MAINTAIN AND OPERATE HELICOPTER.
HELIBUG has spent considerable time making this product
reliable and easy to build, but only the operator can insure that it is
safe. Because the safe operation of this helicopter is beyond the control of
the Manufacturer and distributor, the owner/operator assumes all risk of
use.
