Before the start
Clarify with your insurance company whether the operation of a radio- controlled model is covered by insurance (liability insurance).
If you are not yet experienced in controlling RC models, first familiarize yourself with the reactions to the control commands on the standing model.
If necessary, consult an experienced model athlete or a model building club. If necessary, seek the support of an experienced pilot/driver.
Check the remote control system and the model for functional reliability and visible damage, such as defective plug connections or damaged cables, before putting it into operation. All moving parts must function smoothly, but without bearing play. Check all screw and plug connections, wheel nuts and electrical contacts for tightness, as these can become loose or detached during transport, while driving or in the event of minor accidents. Fasten excess lengths of cables in such a way that they cannot get into moving/rotating parts. Cables must also not be kinked. Make sure that all batteries are fully charged and not damaged.

Notes for batteries and rechargeable batteries
Keep batteries out of the reach of children and pets as they may accidentally swallow the batteries. In this case, consult a doctor immediately!
Leaking or damaged batteries can cause burns if touched. If skin or eyes come into contact with the electrolyte, rinse immediately and thoroughly with clear water. and see a doctor. Use suitable protective gloves when disposing of the defective Batteries.

Dispose of empty batteries or defective rechargeable batteries in an environmentally friendly manner at authorized collection points. It is prohibited to dispose of them with household waste!
Batteries must not become damp or wet. Also avoid the formation of condensation water. Never expose the batteries/rechargeable batteries, the charger and the model to adverse environmental conditions (e.g. wetness, excessively high or low ambient temperature, sources of ignition or open fire, dust, vapors, solvents)! Avoid heavy soiling and excessive mechanical stress on the battery and never pull the connecting cables! Never mix batteries and rechargeable batteries at the same time in one device! If no brand-new batteries are used to power the transmitter, ensure that there is sufficient residual capacity (battery tester). Always replace the complete set of batteries, not just individual cells. Always use batteries of the same type and manufacturer. Do not mix batteries with different charge levels. Make sure that the polarity is correct when inserting batteries into the battery holder. If the polarity is incorrect, not only your model but also the battery will be damaged. Batteries must never be short-circui-ted, damaged, disassembled or thrown into an open fire. There is a risk of fire and explosion!
